i'm unable to install YouAutoComplete on vim because he cannot link to python. i've installed python3.8 and 3.7 32bits but it don't change anything(i'm running on windows). And i changed pythonthreedll and pythonthreehome variable without any result.
I had the same problem in past. I download python-3.8.6-amd 64bit and gvim_8.2 64 bit. Maybe you test it with thiis one's. I had download the gvim from this page: https://github.com/vim/vim-win32-installer/releases
GVim must have python 3 support. You can test this in Vim with :py3 pass

I am trying to enable python support for Vim 8.0 on Windows 10.
As I understand it I need:
Vim with python support
Python installed and on the $path
matching 32 or 64 bit versions of both
I have tried
the official 32bit binary, which shows python35.dll with python 3.5.2 and 3
the 64 bit binary available from tux project which shows python36.dll as the ddynamic_python_dll with python 3.6.1
Each time I've checked the path by typing 'python --version' in cmd and confirming I'm getting the right version.
In all cases I get E370 could not load library. How do I make sure Vim is looking at the right file?
set pythonthreedll="c:\program files (x86)\python36-32\python36.dll"
And you might not want to leave that in your .vimrc while you keep changing everything else around it....
This question already has an answer here:
Using python 32 bit in 64bit platform
(1 answer)
Closed 2 years ago.
My computer is 64bit. But I didn't recognize and I installed 32 bit python3.6.
Today morning I installed python3 64bit for my project.
Then I want to use 64 bit one.
How to get rid of python3 32 bit and change to python3 64bit?
Go to where you downloaded the installer for the 32-bit version of Python and uninstall it from there.
Then install the 64-bit version.
It helps when installing to use the manual process.
Install the python version directly into a custom folder of your choosing to the C: drive of your PC.
Select "add to environment variables" while you are there (this will allow you to run the python console from CMD and PowerShell.
Also tick all these boxes:
I hope this helps
Uninstall Python 3 32 bit. Then check your system path.
Windows: https://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm
Linux: Set the $PATH variable.
Python has a habit of not removing itself from there.
Now make sure the Python 3 64 bit installation is correctly in your system path
I am trying to install biopython to run with Python 3.3 on a Windows7 computer.
I have downloaded the biopython executable biopython-1.61.win32-py3.3-beta.exe. When I attempt to run the executable, however, I get the message "Python version 3.3 is required, which is not found in the registry." Python version 3.3 is present on my computer. I have been running programs through it for a month or two. It was installed from the file python-3.3.0.amd64.msi, and is located in the Program Files (x86) directory.I have tried reinstalling Python 3.3 but get the same error message.
Does anyone know how to get around this problem?
Python.org provides Windows installers in two flavours, 32 bit ("win32") and 64 bit ("amd64"). You need matching library installers for your Python version. You are trying to use a 32 bit Biopython installer with a 64 bit Python.
As instructed here http://biopython.org/wiki/Download there are experimental 64 bit Windows installers for Biopython, NumPy, etc here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
Or, you can install the 32-bit version of Python 3.3 for Windows, and then use biopython-1.61.win32-py3.3-beta.exe
You can try to solve this problem by fixing a blank option in the Windows registry.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/11507968/3962648 provide details of similar issue when installing numpy.
In short, you can just run the windows command line and type in: "reg copy HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python /s"
probelm is windows 64bit and biopython 32bit...
to get the 64bit version of biopython get this one:

I'm trying to get Python support in gVim on Windows. Is there a way to accomplish that?
I'm using:
Windows XP SP3
gVim v. 7.3
Python 2.7.13 (ActivePython through Windows Installer binaries)
I had the same issue, but on Windows 7, and a restart didn't fix it.
I already had gVim 7.3 installed. At the time of writing the current Python version was 3.3, so I installed that. But :has ("python") and :has ("python3") still returned 0.
After much trial and error, I determined that:
If gVim is 32-bit, and it usually is even on 64-bit Windows (you can confirm using the :version command), then you need the 32-bit python installation as well
No restart of Windows 7 is required
The version of python needs to match the version that gVim is compiled for as it looks for a specific DLL name. You can work this out from the :version command in gVim, which gives something like:
Compilation: cl -c /W3 /nologo -I. -Iproto -DHAVE_PATHDEF -DWIN32
-DFEAT_CSCOPE -DFEAT_ NETBEANS_INTG -DFEAT_XPM_W32 -DWINVER=0x0400 -D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0400 /Fo.\ObjGOLYHTR/ / Ox /GL -DNDEBUG /Zl /MT -DFEAT_OLE -DFEAT_MBYTE_IME -DDYNAMIC_IME -DFEAT_GUI_W32 -DDYNAMI C_ICONV -DDYNAMIC_GETTEXT -DFEAT_TCL -DDYNAMIC_TCL
-DDYNAMIC_TCL_DLL=\"tcl83.dll\" -DDYNAM IC_TCL_VER=\"8.3\" -DFEAT_PYTHON -DDYNAMIC_PYTHON -DDYNAMIC_PYTHON_DLL=\"python27.dll\" -D FEAT_PYTHON3 -DDYNAMIC_PYTHON3 -DDYNAMIC_PYTHON3_DLL=\"python31.dll\" -DFEAT_PERL -DDYNAMI C_PERL -DDYNAMIC_PERL_DLL=\"perl512.dll\" -DFEAT_RUBY -DDYNAMIC_RUBY -DDYNAMIC_RUBY_VER=19 1 -DDYNAMIC_RUBY_DLL=\"msvcrt-ruby191.dll\" -DFEAT_BIG /Fd.\ObjGOLYHTR/ /Zi
So the above told me that I don't actually want python 3.3, I need 3.1 (or 2.7). After installing python 3.1, :has ("python") still returns 0, but :has ("python3") now returns 1. That should mean that python based scripts will now work!
I imagine future versions of gVim may be compiled against other versions of python, but using this method should let you work out which version is required.
Usually, python support is built in the official gvim distribution.
You will need to install python though: Python Downloads
to check if vim supports python:
:echo has("python")
I encountered this problem on Windows 7 64-bit. I realized I was using 64-bit Python 2.7.3 and 32-bit vim 7.3-46. I reinstalled both as 32-bit versions and then restarted the computer. Now it works.
If you have installed Python via one of the Windows installers it is probably compiled with Python 2.7 support. You can verify this by running:
:version
It will spit out all the options Vim was compiled with. Yours should say something like
+python/dyn +python3\dyn
This means you have support for python 2.7 and 3.x. If you already have 2.5 it won't work. You will need to upgrade to either 2.7 or 3.x.
Sorry for a late contribution.
The problem is that you can not mix x86 vim with x64 python libs, and all suggested solutions boil down to reinstalling x86 python.
Well, I do not want to reinstall Python, Ruby and who knows what else dependent on those just because vim does not officially provide fair x64 distribution on windows. The good news is that you can still find it well hidden at http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Where_to_download_Vim . Good luck, and take care of Python library versions.
The accepted answer didn't solve my problem, so I decide to post the solution I found after some efforts.
First, as the accepted answer pointed out, you'll need both gVim compiled with python enabled, and a corresponding python installation. Make sure they are both 32-bit or 64-bit.
I found that the default build from www.vim.org didn't enable python, also it seemed to be 32-bit, which didn't match my python27. What I ended up with was the build "gvim_8.0.0003_x64.zip" from this vim Git repository
I then unzipped it, copied the "vim80" folder into the official vim installation location (created by the 32-bit installation downloaded www.vim.org).
Now vim works with my 64-bit python2.7 .
UPDATE 02/24/2017:
The procedure above failed on another machine where the local python installation is 2.7.9 . My Python version is 2.7.11 when I succeeded.
So, it seems the build from the vim Git repository works for a specific Python version. Try update your Python installation to 2.7.11 if you can. If you have to use an older version of Python, then maybe you need to build the Vim source code on your machine. It's not too hard following the instructions, and use the Visual Studio provided cmd instead of the Windows default cmd.
Add following scripts to your .vimrc
set pythonthreedll = python36.dll
Most distribution of vim in Windows is loading python dynamically, you must tell vim what the dll is, and make sure that python36.dll is in your PATH environment variable.
I had a similar problem. I've been enjoying vim's omni-completion feature for some years,using Windows XP, Python 2.7, gVim 7. Recently I moved to a new PC running Windows 8.1. I installed gVim and the plugins I like, then tried out everything. Omni-completion gave an error, saying I needed the version of vim compiled with Python support. At that stage, I had not yet installed Python. The solution was to install Python then re-install vim. Omni-conpletion now works. Perhaps the order of installation matters.
When I typed :version, it revealed that my Vim was not compiled with Python. Perhaps because I did not have Python (32-bit?) at the time.
I did install 32-bit Python as suggested, but reinstalling Vim seemed necessary.
After reading the above, I can confirm that on Win8.1 it does matter the order you install them (least for me it did). I had 32bit VIM 7.4 installed for a few months, then tried adding Python and couldn't do it. Left Python 2.7.9 installed and uninstalled/reinstalled VIM and now it works.
Download the one called "OLE GUI executable"
After trying all answers in this thread without success, the following worked for me (Win10, Python 2.7 32bit, gvim 7.4 32bit):
Reinvoke the Python Installer, select Change Python
Select the Option Add Python to Path, which is off by default
After the installer is done, restart your machine
I'm running Python 2.7 on Windows 7 64-bit, and when I run the installer for setuptools it tells me that Python 2.7 is not installed. The specific error message is:
`Python Version 2.7 required which was not found in the registry`
My installed version of Python is:
`Python 2.7 (r27:82525, Jul 4 2010, 07:43:08) [MSC v.1500 64 bit (AMD64)] on win32`
I'm looking at the setuptools site and it doesn't mention any installers for 64-bit Windows. Have I missed something or do I have to install this from source?
Problem: you have 64-bit Python, and a 32-bit installer. This will cause problems for extension modules.
The reasons why the installer doesn't finds Python is the transparent 32-bit emulation from Windows 7. 64-bit and 32-bit programs will write to different parts of the Windows registry.
64-bit: HKLM|HKCU\SOFTWARE\
32-bit: HKLM|HKCU\SOFTWARE\wow6432node\.
This means that the 64-bit Python installer writes to HKLM\SOFTWARE\Python, but the 32-bit setuptools installer looks at HKLM\SOFTWARE\wow6432node\Python (this is handled by windows automatically, programs don't notice). This is expected behavior and not a bug.
Usually, you have these choices:
the "clean" way: use 32-bit Python if you have to use 32-bit modules or extensions
the other "clean" way: only use 64-bit installers when using 64-bit Python (see below)
what the answer above suggests: copy HKLM\SOFTWARE\Python to HKLM\SOFTWARE\wow6432node\Python, but this will cause problems with binary distributions, as 64-bit Python can't load 32-bit compiled modules (do NOT do this!)
install pure Python modules with setuptools instead of the distutils installer (easy_install or pip)
For setuptools itself, for example, you can't use a 32-bit installer for 64-bit Python as it includes binary files. But there's a 64-bit installer at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ (has many installers for other modules too). Nowadays, many packages on PyPi have binary distributions, so you can install them via pip.
Apparently (having faced related 64- and 32-bit issues on OS X) there is a bug in the Windows installer. I stumbled across this workaround, which might help - basically, you create your own registry value HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.6\InstallPath and copy over the InstallPath value from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.6\InstallPath. See the answer below for more details.
If you do this, beware that setuptools may only install 32-bit libraries.
NOTE: the responses below offer more detail, so please read them too.
I made a registry (.reg) file that will automatically change the registry for you. It works if it's installed in "C:\Python27":
Download 32-bit version HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE|HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\wow6432node\
Download 64-bit version HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE|HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\
Yes, you are correct, the issue is with 64-bit Python and 32-bit installer for setuptools.
The best way to get 64-bit setuptools installed on Windows is to download ez_setup.py to C:\Python27\Scripts and run it. It will download appropriate 64-bit .egg file for setuptools and install it for you.
Source: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/setuptools
P.S. I'd recommend against using 3rd party 64-bit .exe setuptools installers or manipulating registry
Create a file named python2.7.reg (registry file) and put this content into it:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help\MainPythonDocumentation]
#="C:\\Python27\\Doc\\python26.chm"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath]
#="C:\\Python27\\"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath\InstallGroup]
#="Python 2.7"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Modules]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.7\PythonPath]
#="C:\\Python27\\Lib;C:\\Python27\\DLLs;C:\\Python27\\Lib\\lib-tk"
And make sure every path is right!
Then run (merge) it and done :)
Get the file register.py from this gist. Save it on your C drive or D drive, go to CMD to run it with:
'python register.py'
Then you will be able to install it.
For 64-bit Python on Windows download ez_setup.py and run it; it will download the appropriate .egg file and install it for you.
At the time of writing the .exe installer does not support 64-bit versions of Python for Windows, due to a distutils installer compatibility issue.
To allow Windows installers to find the installed Python directory in Windows 7, OR, change which Python installation to install an installer into, add the installed path into the InstallPath registry key's (Default) value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Python\PythonCore\2.X\InstallPath
Where "X" is the Python version (that is, 2.5, 2.6, or 2.7).
I tried the above and adding the registry keys to the LOCALMACHINE was not getting the job done. So in case you are still stuck , try this.
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\Help]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Help\Main Python Documentation]
#="C:\Python27\Doc\python272.chm"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath]
#="C:\Python27\"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\InstallPath\InstallGroup]
#="Python 2.7"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\Modules]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.7\PythonPath]
#="C:\Python27\Lib;C:\Python27\DLLs;C:\Python27\Lib\lib-tk"
Copy paste the above in notepad and save it as Python27.reg . Now run/merge the file as mentioned in the answers above. (Make sure the paths of Python installation are corrected as per your installation.
It simply does ,what the above answers suggest for a local machine ,to the current user.
Here is a link to another post/thread. I was able run this script to automate registration of Python 2.7. (Make sure to run it from the Python 2.x .exe you want to register!)
To register Python 3.x I had to modify the print syntax and import winreg (instead of _winreg), then run the Python 3 .exe.

You can find 64bit installers for a lot of libs here: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/
