TLDR

I cannot install 3.6.10 using pyenv-win and can install 3.6.8 only ref.

Though I cannot get it become global python version using pyenv global ref

Details

I installed pyenv-win as guided here and failed as below output. As you know the fix, please share.

p.s. I also post this on pyenv-win github home here

:: [ERROR] :: 404 :: file not found

My full command and output as below

PS C:\Users\namgivu> pyenv install 3.6.10
:: [Info] ::  Mirror: https://www.python.org/ftp/python
:: [Downloading] ::  3.6.10 ...
:: [Downloading] ::  From https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.10/python-3.6.10.exe
:: [Downloading] ::  To   C:\Users\namgivu\.pyenv\pyenv-win\install_cache\python-3.6.10.exe
:: [ERROR] :: 404 :: file not found

Retried with 3.6.8 and can succeed; though CANNOT pyenv global set it to have my windows os to use this 3.6.8 globally instead of previously-installed 3.7.7. This issue also be discussed here

PS C:\Users\namgivu> pyenv install 3.6.8
:: [Info] ::  Mirror: https://www.python.org/ftp/python
:: [Downloading] ::  3.6.8 ...

:: [Info] :: completed! 3.6.8
PS C:\Users\namgivu> pyenv global 3.6.8
PS C:\Users\namgivu> python -V
Python 3.7.7

Python 3.6.9 and 3.6.10 was released as source only - there is no compiled version for Windows.

You may wish to compile it yourself, but before you do, please read the good advice in this related thread.

Side note for pyenv global command

After pyenv install, we need to call pyenv rehash before setting it global/local as discussed here

PS C:\Users\namgivu> pyenv global 3.7.6; pyenv rehash; python -V
Python 3.7.6
PS C:\Users\namgivu> pyenv global 3.6.8; pyenv rehash; python -V
Python 3.6.8
