The Windows installer for example titles the software as Display Name:Python 3.5.3 (64-bit) Display Version: 3.5.3150.0 The default install folder is C:\Program Files\Python35 There is no consistency It looks like the 3150 been shorten to 3 If you look at Python 2.7.2 it has a display version of 2.7.13150 Suggest Display Name:Python 3.5 (64-bit) Display Version: 3.5.3150.0 C:\Program Files\Python3.5 or C:\Program Files\Python3.5.3150 OR Display Name:Python 3.5.3150 (64-bit) Display Version: 3.5.3150.0 C:\Program Files\Python3.5.3150 OR Display Name:Python 3.5.3 (64-bit) Display Version: 3.5.3.3150 C:\Program Files\Python3.5.3 Alse seems that Python 3 installer is placing one entery in the 'Users' registry for uninstall and the rest of the entries in 'System' registry for uninstall I suggest if the files are installed in C:\Program Files then their should be no 'User' registry entries.

Please file separate bugs for each of your concerns, and ensure Python 3.6/3.7 and 2.7 are separate as these are fundamentally different installers and will have different bugs. Other versions will not be changed at this point.
