What does the error message say exactly? Which file is missing?

Just guessing but is it complaining about a file called
"api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll"? If so then you need to install
this file in an update from Microsoft here:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2999226

Afterwards you should be able to install Python 3.5. Alternatively you
can install Python 3.4 which does not need this dll.
