declaimed the following:

>Hello I have problem with python installation.I downloaded python 3.5 but I cannot use it on my computer.I can not open the idle. I get something like saying "users\local settings\Application data\programs\python\python35-32\pythonw.exe is not valid win32 application. Thanks that will be help if you can solve this.

	Given that path, you have a very strangely configured Windows system...

"local settings" is in the place where a login user name would be, and
there should not normally be application programs found in "application
data" -- only user specific configuration files. Actually -- on my system
there is no "application data", it is "AppData"

	While Windows likes to stuff things in directories with spaces in them,
I find third-party applications (especially those that are created for
multiple OSes) work better when installed in directories that have no
spaces...
