keep getting an error about api-ms-win-crt-runtime-|1-1-0.dll not being
installed. Any advice on what is wrong?

Hi Donald, you're seeing this problem because Python 3.5 on Windows 7 needs
a runtime update. You can get this update from Microsoft:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2999226

Alternatively you can install Python 3.4 instead since 3.4 doesn't need the
update.
