Unless you are experimenting, you only need 3.6.1. 3.0 is deprecated in the

Steve can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this means your Windows OS isn't

New submission from Mark Airey:
I downloaded and installed python 3.0, 3.6.0 and 3.6.1 and they all said that I
was missing: "api-ms-win-crt-runtime-|1-1-0.dll" or the msi files as i have
read online. I don't know how to get said files and I need this program soon.
Can anyone help?
