[issue43486] Python 3.9 installer not updating ARP table

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower  added the comment:

Leaving the launcher behind is deliberate. Otherwise you might 
install/uninstall 3.10 alpha and lose the launcher completely.

I can't trivially reproduce the ARP issue, so we'll need some more information.

If possible, can you grab the install logs from %TEMP% and attach them here in 
a zip file?

Also, any information about any restrictive administrator policies or 
anti-virus tools running on your machine might be relevant.

The 64 installer doesn't even show up in the ARP table, only Python Launcher.

[issue43486] Python 3.9 installer not updating ARP table

[Adam]

New submission from Adam :

1. Install 3.9.0 using the following command line options: 

python-3.9.0.exe /quiet InstallAllUsers=1

2. Install 3.9.2 using the following command line options: 

python-3.9.2.exe /quiet InstallAllUsers=1

3. Observe that 3.9.2 successfully installed, however the ARP table does not 
reflect the latest version (see first screenshot in the attachment) it still 
shows 3.9.0 as installed.

4. Uninstall 3.9.2 using the following command line options:

python-3.9.2.exe /uninstall /silent

5. Observe that Python 3.9.0 is still listed as installed in the ARP table. 
Looking in the registry, all Python installed products are removed except for 
Python Launcher. Maybe it is by design to leave Python Launcher on the system, 
maybe not, but I think keeping the ARP table tidy would reduce confusion for 
users. See second screenshot in the attachment.
