How to install Python (any version) in Windows when you've no admin privileges?

Tags:

python

The "NO ADMIN PRIVILEGES" part is key. I need to install Python but I do not have access to it in order to run the installation in a proper way. I'm also behind a firewall, so the "pip" option is quite limited.

Could you help me figure this out?

Can I install Python packages without admin rights?

To install Python packages (“eggs”) from the Python language's package manager pip, follow our instructions below. This can be done without Administrator access in a per-user, per-project clean manner with virtualenv.

How do I install software if I'm not the administrator?

Search up "(name of the software you are installing) install" in a search engine to get fast results. Download the app installer onto your laptop. Drag the installer to your "Documents" folder. Make a folder to store the installer and other related files that will help with the installation.

From the Python website, download the MSI version of Python you wish to install.

Then open your command prompt and use this command:

msiexec /a python-2.7.10.msi /qb TARGETDIR=C:\python27

Substitute python-2.7.10.msi, if you downloaded Python 3 and adjust your target directory to where you want it to go.

The /qb flag will give you a small dialog progress bar.
