Step2 - Install Python

			




	
	
	
		
 
----------------------

			




	
	
	
		
 

			




	
	
	
		
 
Install Python 2.x.y (x >= 5) x86 version (32bit). DO NOT USE A 3.x version.

			




	
	
	
		
 
Download Python 2.x.y from:

			




	
	
	
		
 
http://www.python.org/download/

			




	
	
	
		
 

			




	
	
	
		
 
Choose "Windows Installer" (32bit version) not "Windows X86-64

			




	
	
	
		
 
Installer". While writing this guide, the latest version was v2.7.3.

			




	
	
	
		
 
Remember the specific major and minor version installed, because it will

			




	
	
	
		
 
be needed in the next step. In this case, it is "2.7".

			




	
	
	
		
 

			




	
	
	
		
 
.. note::

			




	
	
	
		
 
64bit: Just download and install the 64bit version of python.

			




	
	
	
		
 

			




	
	
	
		
 
Step3 - Install Win32py extensions

- Click on the first folder (in this case, Build 217, maybe newer when you try)

			




	
	
	
		
 
- Choose the file ending with ".win32-py2.x.exe" -> x being the minor

			




	
	
	
		
 
  version of Python you installed (in this case, 7)

			




	
	
	
		
 
  When writing this guide, the file was:
