If no relevant options are set, the commands python and python2 will use the latest Python 2. The commands python3. In addition to environment variables, the same settings can be configured in the. INI file used by the launcher. The contents of an environment variable will override things specified in the INI file. While this information manages to be simultaneously verbose and terse, it should allow you to see what versions of Python were located, why a particular version was chosen and the exact command-line used to execute the target Python.
Python usually stores its library and thereby your site-packages folder in the installation directory. To completely override sys. The file based on the DLL name overrides the one based on the executable, which allows paths to be restricted for any program loading the runtime if desired. When the file exists, all registry and environment variables are ignored, isolated mode is enabled, and site is not imported unless one line in the file specifies import site.
Blank paths and lines starting with are ignored. Each path may be absolute or relative to the location of the file. Import statements other than to site are not permitted, and arbitrary code cannot be specified.
Note that. When no. Subkeys which have semicolon-delimited path strings as their default value will cause each path to be added to sys. If a Python home is found, the relevant sub-directories added to sys. Otherwise, the core Python path is constructed from the PythonPath stored in the registry. If a pyvenv. When running python. When Python is hosted in another. For those who want to bundle Python into their application or distribution, the following advice will prevent conflicts with other installations:.
Include a. This will ignore paths listed in the registry and environment variables, and also ignore site unless import site is listed. If you are loading python3. If you cannot use the previous suggestions for example, you are a distribution that allows people to run python. These will ensure that the files in a system-wide installation will not take precedence over the copy of the standard library bundled with your application.
Otherwise, your users may experience problems using your application. Note that the first suggestion is the best, as the others may still be susceptible to non-standard paths in the registry and user site-packages. Adds pythonXX. Modules specified in the registry under Modules not PythonPath may be imported by importlib. This finder is enabled on Windows in 3. Even though Python aims to be portable among all platforms, there are features that are unique to Windows. A couple of modules, both in the standard library and external, and snippets exist to use these features.
This includes utilities for:. It is an embeddable IDE with a built-in debugger. When you have done this, you can distribute your application without requiring your users to install Python. H , used to create text user interfaces. If you want to compile CPython yourself, first thing you should do is get the source. The source tree contains a build solution and project files for Microsoft Visual Studio , which is the compiler used to build the official Python releases.
These files are in the PCbuild directory. With ongoing development of Python, some platforms that used to be supported earlier are no longer supported due to the lack of users or developers. Check PEP 11 for details on all unsupported platforms. Windows CE is still supported. The Cygwin installer offers to install the Python interpreter as well cf. Cygwin package source , Maintainer releases. See Python for Windows for detailed information about platforms with pre-compiled installers.
Navigation index modules next previous Python ». In this case: You may be required to provide administrative credentials or approval Python will be installed into the Program Files directory The Python Launcher for Windows will be installed into the Windows directory Optional features may be selected during installation The standard library can be pre-compiled to bytecode If selected, the install directory will be added to the system PATH Shortcuts are available for all users.
After changing the above option, no further configuration is required. This will override most other options. Warning Python will always be available for free on the Microsoft Store. Note The embedded distribution does not include the Microsoft C Runtime and it is the responsibility of the application installer to provide this. The following is a list of popular versions and their key features: ActivePython Installer with multi-platform compatibility, documentation, PyWin32 Anaconda Popular scientific modules such as numpy, scipy and pandas and the conda package manager.
WinPython Windows-specific distribution with prebuilt scientific packages and tools for building packages. For example, if you have a shebang line:! Examples: If no relevant options are set, the commands python and python2 will use the latest Python 2. The end result of all this is: When running python. For those who want to bundle Python into their application or distribution, the following advice will prevent conflicts with other installations: Include a.
Deprecated since version 3. See also Win32 How Do I…? Cygwin package source , Maintainer releases See Python for Windows for detailed information about platforms with pre-compiled installers. Table of Contents 4. Using Python on Windows 4. The full installer 4. Installation steps 4. Installing Without UI 4. Installing Without Downloading 4. A few binaries are available for the PyPy distribution. The files are unofficial meaning: informal, unrecognized, personal, unsupported, no warranty, no liability, provided "as is" and made available for testing and evaluation purposes.
Most binaries are built from source code found on PyPI or in the projects public revision control systems. Come on, hit us with a Comment. Love to hear what you think!

At this point in time, it will often be easier for users to install these packages by other means rather than attempting to install them with pip.
Appropriately versioned pip commands may also be available. On Windows, use the py Python launcher in combination with the -m switch:. On Linux systems, a Python installation will typically be included as part of the distribution. Installing into this Python installation requires root access to the system, and may interfere with the operation of the system package manager and other components of the system if a component is unexpectedly upgraded using pip.
On such systems, it is often better to use a virtual environment or a per-user installation when installing packages with pip. It is possible that pip does not get installed by default. One potential fix is:. There are also additional resources for installing pip. Python has typically relied heavily on source based distribution, with end users being expected to compile extension modules from source as part of the installation process.
With the introduction of support for the binary wheel format, and the ability to publish wheels for at least Windows and macOS through the Python Package Index, this problem is expected to diminish over time, as users are more regularly able to install pre-built extensions rather than needing to build them themselves.
