Most of the MSDN links in Doc/library/msilib.rst are broken: https://docs.python.org/3/library/msilib.html For example, the UuidToString link goes to https://msdn.microsoft.com/library?url=/library/en-us/rpc/rpc/uuidtostring.asp But I believe the correct link should be https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa379352(v=vs.85).aspx

This couldn't be backported by miss-islington, so someone needs to do it manually.
