Compare https://www.python.org/downloads/ which I believe is being 
referred to above, to https://www.python.org/ and hover your mouse over 
"downloads" and then "Python 3.5.0", this offers a web install exe, to 
https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ which offers everything 
including the kitchen sink.
