Hi!

What version of Windows are you running? And what architecture (32-bit
or 64-bit)? Exactly what file did you download, and from where? The
more information you can provide, the easier it will be to figure out
what's going on.

Hi!

You can uninstall the python directly through the control panel, normally.
But, if the python was installed as part of any software package that you have installed in your system, then it requires that specific software to be uninstalled a prior its un-installation.
