Using Windows 7 64bits, I downloaded and installed python 3.5 but when starting the program I get the following error message:

The program cannot be started because it is missing api-ms-win-crt-Runtime-L1-1-0.dll on your computer.

I have tried to download visual package c++ from Windows only also error ( installation failed ).

The error itself says that the file is missing api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll, it is installed with a Windows update.

Footsteps:

Install the Service Pack 1 for Windows 7.
Download and install the update. Here’s how to do this: Update to Universal C Runtime on Windows

My windows already has the service pack 1. I tried to download and install the update but it still didn’t work. Any more suggestions ?

When installing the program, my Anti-malware byteFence found risks in this installation. What should I do ? @Taisbevalle

The error continues. I continued the installation even giving warning of danger. However at the end of the program scan, python continued with the error when opening.
