Re: setup failed
If you need 32-bit Python on Windows my advice is to install 3.4. If you need 32-bit and 64-bit Python on Windows, then I think it will only work with 3.4 (or older), but not with 3.5's new installer. I have tried installing 3.5.0 and 3.5.1 on several machines both 32- and 64-bit Windows. The 32-bit installer either doesn't work at all or won't work with two third-party packages I use: APSW and PyWin32. The 64-bit installer does seem to work on 64-bit machines, but in my particular case I need both 32- and 64-bit versions so use Python 3.4. Hopefully the problem will be fixed before 3.4's end of life:-) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

My advice is use Python 3.4 if you need to work on Windows: unlike the 3.5 installer I've never encountered a problem with the 3.4 (or 3.3) installers. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

The problem is when I install the program setup is failed and showing 0*80070570-The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable. I install the newest visual c++ redist and still same. My os is win 8.1. Please help me out of this This sounds similar. Did you install the 32 bit or 64 bit version? If you installed the 32 bit version and don't object to using the 64bit version I would try installing that. https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2015-September/697456.html -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
