Every time I try loading Python 3.5, it says "The program can't start because api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll is missing from your computer." How can I fix this?

[brendan-donegan]

This more likely to be a system misconfiguration issue than a Python one. Following http://stackoverflow.com/questions/33265663/api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0-dll-is-missing-when-opening-microsoft-office-file will probably fix the issue for you.

Gabriel - did that solution work for you? If not, can you install and provide all the Python logs from %TEMP%?
