when you first try to install nuitka python compiler in windows 7
yout get the following error:
no python installation found in the registry
In windows 7 there is something incomplete with python installer...
so you need to inject some information in the windows registry
if you have python 2.7 you need to create a file eg. python_reg.reg
insert the following ,save and then merge into the registry (right click merge)
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python\Pythoncore]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python\Pythoncore\2.7]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python\Pythoncore\2.7\InstallPath]
@="C:\\Python27"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python\Pythoncore\2.7\PythonPath]
@="C:\\Python27;C:\\Python27\\Lib\\;C:\\Python27\\DLLs\\"
If you are about to install a diferrent version of python remember to change the numbers accordingly.
eg if you plan to install python 3.3 you need to change 2.7 to 3.3 and python27 to python33
That's all
