Hello
Just downloaded :
https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.5.0/python-3.5.0-amd64.exe
And I launch the install, I check checkbox to install for all users
And folder for installation stay at:
C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\
I have to change it manually

Well, I don't want it in that folder when I install globally.
Thanks

I am using windows 10, latests updates.

Another problem with the installer:
It don' t set environnement variable even when checked

Did you check the checkbox on the front page?

The checkbox that says "Install launcher for all users" only installs the launcher for all users, which is recommended for compatibility with Python 3.4 or 2.7 (which would otherwise override the launcher with one that doesn't work).

To install Python itself for all users you need to go through Customize and select it on the second page.
