Vista is still supported in Python 3.5, but it requires the Universal
CRT update, which requires the latest Service Pack for Vista (see
here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2999226).  If your Vista
is up to date, you should have no problem.

It could be argued that if you're not up to date you're not supported
by Microsoft and thus not supported by Python, but that may be
stretching things a bit.
