Adding additional Python instances installed to non-standard directories

Issue #13 closed
Former user created an issue

I have four versions of python installed on my system, 2.7-32 & 3.7-32 installed in the standard way, and two versions (2.7-64 & 3.4-64) that came packaged with third party software (SPSS) and installed in non-standard directories.

I am not even sure if SPSS created registry keys for the binaries included with the software (do not have sufficient privileges on this system).

When I run 'c:>py -0p' only the first two instances (and install paths) are listed.

I'd like to be able to manually add the paths to the additional Python EXE's.

    Why do you think this is a bug? The launcher only finds Python interpreters which are in the registry. It works that way by design.
