[issue20972] python34.dll not in System32 or SysWOW64 folders after install python-3.4.0.amd64.msi

I just installed 64-bit 3.4.0 on 64-bit Win7 with no trouble at all, and python34.dll is sitting happily in C:\Windows\System32.

To try to figure out what you did that I didn't (or vice versa), I have a few questions for you:

1) How did you run the installer?

2) Did you choose to install "for all users" or "just for me"?

3) Did you run the installer with administrative privileges, or did it ask for elevation of privileges?

4) Did you select/unselect any options such that they did not match default (default being all options will be installed, except adding python.exe to PATH)?

For my successful install, I 1) ran the installer by the classic double-click-the-icon method, 2) installed for all users, 3) gave elevated privileges when it asked, and 4) left all options at default.
