As specified in :pep:`11`, a Python release only supports a Windows platform
while Microsoft considers the platform under extended support. This means that
Python |version| supports Windows Vista and newer. If you require Windows XP
support then please install Python 3.4.
Python |version| supports Windows 8.1 and newer. If you require Windows XP
support then please install Python 3.4. If you require Windows Vista then
please install Python 3.6. If you require Windows 7 then please install
Python 3.8.

There are a number of different installers available for Windows, each with
certain benefits and downsides.
