Hello Guyz!Recently i've been learning Python and thought i could make a few posts about it so that you can also learn with me at the same time it allows me to test my knowledge :)

                                                               First let us see how to download python and get it running inyour computer.
  • Download Python 3.3.2 Installer from python.org,select your Version.Mine is a windows 64 one

download python 3.3.2




  • Now once the Download is complete,we need to install it.here comes the tricky part.it is an .msi package and windows does not show the run as Administrator option for msi packages but you need an Administrator privilege to install it properly
msi right click menu

  • you need to run command prompt as Administrator
running cmd as administrator


  • Now change the working directory to the folder where the python msi has been downloaded by using the command "cd<space>path" it would look something like below
changing present working directory

  • Now use the following command to run the installation as an administror

  msiexec /i Filename.msi


  • my msi package name is "python-3.3.2.amd64.msi" so the command looks like
msiexec /i python-3.3.2.amd64.msi
  • if yours is a 32 bit download the command would be,
msiexec /i python-3.3.2.msi 

running msi as administrator

  • And now normal installation starts and you can proceed furthur as usual.
  • Once you are done with the installation,open up IDLE the gui version of python from start menu all programs
IDLE python gui

  • The python Shell looks like below image,neat and elegant
