When I try to install Python 3.8 in a Windows Server, I receive this error message:
The logs below say something related to key registry, I not sure but it's about permission to write in key registry. How can I solve it? Maybe changing Python version to 3.7?
This line here [47C8:33EC][2020-09-15T16:43:00]e000: Error 0x80070005: Failed to write run key value.
it's the main point from the log below.
