I am used to looking in HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore%(pymaj)d.%(pymin)d\InstallPath to find out where python is installed so that my installation kit can add itself to site-packages. I just found that the registry key used for 32 bit python 3.5 on windows changed to be '3.5-32', which I can change my installer to cope with. However the key for the 64bit install is ‘3.5’ but not '3.5-64'. Why was this changed and why not consistently between 32 and 64 bit versions?
Raised as bug http://bugs.python.org/issue25148
