[New-bugs-announce] [issue31767] Windows Installer fails with error 0x80091007 when trying to install debugging symbols

[Igor Skochinsky]

New submission from Igor Skochinsky <skochinsky at gmail.com>:

Trying to install 3.6.3 on Windows 10 and getting this error.

Repro steps:

1. Download python-3.6.3.exe or python-3.6.3-amd64.exe, run it
2. Select "Customize Installation"
3. Next
4. In Advanced Options, select 
[x] Install for all users (not sure if important)
[x] Download debugging symbols
change path to F:\Python36 (not sure if it matters but my system drive is F: and C: is missing except for when I plug in a USB drive)
Ucheck
[ ] Associate files with Python
Click Install and accept elevation prompt. After a while it fails with 

Error 0x80091007 - Hash value not correct.

Interestingly, "log file" link does not work. I had to go hunt for the log in %temp% myself. The relevant parts:

Error 0x80091007: Hash mismatch for path: F:\ProgramData\Package Cache\.unverified\core_AllUsers_pdb, expected: A4B6E4A818E49F000513774F034EC98A194E3C3D, actual: 36C7B852E586D26F4D239ED72EFE5FFBEBA21825
Error 0x80091007: Failed to verify hash of payload: core_AllUsers_pdb
Failed to verify payload: core_AllUsers_pdb at path: F:\ProgramData\Package Cache\.unverified\core_AllUsers_pdb, error: 0x80091007. Deleting file.
Application requested retry of payload: core_AllUsers_pdb, encountered error: 0x80091007. Retrying...

There are a few more retries basically with the same result. However, this one is interesting:

Acquiring package: core_AllUsers_pdb, payload: core_AllUsers_pdb, copy from: F:\Users\Igor\Downloads\core_pdb.msi

I don't have such a file there, just the installer .exe
