Question:

What is the best version of ActivePython to use with Windows Vista?

Answer:

The best version of ActivePython to use with Windows Vista is ActivePython 2.5.0.0.

ActivePython versions 2.4.3.12 and above pass all of the same tests on Vista that they do on Windows XP and other supported versions of Windows.

Note that you will need to right-click on the installation file and select "Run as Administrator" for the installation to be successful. This issue will be resolved in a future version of ActivePython.

best is ActivePython 2.5.0.0
