I install Python 3.4.1 64-bit on Windows. After the install I type: assoc .py and I get back: File association not found for extension .py Why does not the Python install to associate extension .py with the Python Launcher for Windows ?

Somewhere during the install, there is a checkbox or something about grabbing file associations or about making the install the default version. I do not remember. -- Terry Jan Reedy
