The below is explained for x64 bit windows 8.1 system with a 64 bit Python setup package use the below mentioned setup name(.exe file) in Step1: and search in google for downloading the Python setup
if the following error comes while installing Python 3.5.0 Setup in windows 8.1 64 bit Operating Sys- Error 0x80240017: Failed to configure per-machine MSU package
Start CMD as Admin, after that
Step1: ~YourFilePath/python-3.5.0-amd64.exe /quiet InstallAllUsers=1 PrependPath=1 Include_test=0
Step2: ~YourFilePath/python-3.5.0-amd64.exe
~YourFilePath stands for the location of the python-3.5.0-amd64.exe file in your PC Example: E:\Softwares\python-3.5.0-amd64.exe
now after executing the Step2: the setup will run without any errors..... Cool....
