"No Python installation found in the registried."

[iainelder]

I'm trying to install this on Microsoft Windows Version 6.2.9200 (Windows Server 2012 64-bit).

I get a dialog with this error message:

No Python installation found in the registried. It won't be possible to install the bindings.

In context the error looks like this:

In reality my Python installation exists at "C:\Program Files\Python27".

What can I do?

I'm sorry but 64-bit Windows is not supported.

That's a pity. Thanks for confirming.

Would you consider supporting 64-bit Windows in the future?

Do you know another easy way to do it on 64-bit Windows?

I don't have access to a Win64 machine at this point.

To make it work on Win64, you should first get a version of TDM-GCC (and all the different packages listed in the README) that supports 64bit. Then, you can try to run InnoSetup on the .iss file so that it builds a new installer that contains the 64-bit package; I suppose the .iss file must be modified to tell InnoSetup that it must be build as 64bit file.

Then you need to find out why the installer code in the .iss file doesn't detect your Python installation; see function GetInstalledPythonVersions that just grabs a key from the registry; if the key is in a different place on 64-bit system, you should update it.

It works on Win64, just install a 32-bit Python distribution like Anaconda. It will then be detected correctly by the installer.

I have a 32-bit version of windows and I am experiencing the same issue.
Is there a way of fixing this?

Having the same issue. I have Python 2.7 with Anaconda but the installer isn't identifying it in the "Python bindings" page. How can I resolve this?
