installation – I can’t install Python with Visual Studio

I used to be able to install python.

enter image description here

See.

Just click Python 3 64 bit and installed.

Now no matter how many times I did that Python simply didn’t get installed.

Visual studio installer looks like it’s installing something but it install nothing. Python should be installed on

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\Python39_64\

Nothing got installed there.

Basically I used to have 2 python installation. One from app store and another from visual studio.

I tried to get rid the one from Appstore but can’t. So I downloaded Microsoft uninstaller.

It turns out the uninstaller uninstall the visual studio’s python.

Latter I managed to remove the python from the app store.

Then I want to reinstall visual studio’s pyton.

I couldn’t. Tried again.

At first I saw that directory

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\Shared\Python39_64\

Have a bunch of files. But python.exe is not there.

After uninstalling and reinstalling several time, python is not even installed at all. The checkbox for python 3 64 bit is always unchecked. I can check and press modify and it will be unchecked again after I am done.

Oh I open visual studio installer as administrator
