This package skips automatic verification:

Needs to install some Windows updates if they are missing, however it doesn't know how to do that. The exit code is 23, which is a CRC error, so it is technically probably not even correct - https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms681382(v=vs.85).aspx


This package was approved as a trusted package on 7/17/2017.

Python 3.x is a programming language that lets you work more quickly and integrate your systems more effectively. You can learn to use Python 3.x and see almost immediate gains in productivity and lower maintenance costs.

Package Parameters

  • /InstallDir - Installation directory

These parameters can be passed to the installer with the user of --params.
For example: --params '"/InstallDir:C:\tools\python2"'

Notes

  • This package installs the latest stable version of Python 3.x. It will install to Python 3.x to C:\Python3x.
  • This package is not intended to use with Chocolatey’s -x86 parameter. If you want a 32-bit Python 3.x on 64-bit systems, install the {{PackageName}}-x86_32 package instead. You can also install both. In that case you must manually adapt your .exe shims so that it picks the desired version when you invoke python.exe.

To install Python 3.x, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:

C:\> choco install python3

To upgrade Python 3.x, run the following command from the command line or from PowerShell:

C:\> choco upgrade python3

Virus Scan Results

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).

Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
