1. Download the latest installer from Pythons website https://www.python.org/downloads/

2. Create a new Custom Software with the latest Python installer.

3. Set the Installer Arguments to /quiet InstallAllUsers=1 PrependPath=1 Include_test=0 if you want it installed System-wide or /quiet InstallAllUsers=0 PrependPath=1 Include_test=0 if you want it installed for the Users only.

(Note: If you wish to upgrade Python you will need to choose the installer arguments according to the already installed version)

4. Make sure the installer context is set to Per User as the install won't work in SYSTEM context.
   (even if you are installing it system wide!)

5. Select the targets for Python to be installed on.

6. When Python is being installed the UAC privilege prompt will appear where the users will have to allow the app to make changes to the device. Users without local Admin privileges can't accept this prompt.

7. When the install is done, the host needs to restart for the effects of the installer to be fully implemented.

1. Download the latest version of HP Support Assistant through their website https://support.hp.com/us-en/help/hp-support-assistant

2. Rename the file spxxxxxx.exe to spxxxxxx.zip.

3. Create a text document with the following content using your favourite text editor Start-Process -FilePath InstallHPSA.exe -Argumentlist "/S /v/qn", save it as installhpsa.ps1.

4. Create a new Custom Software Deployment Configuration, set the installer as installhpsa.ps1 and add spxxxxxx.zip as an additional file. It is vital that you set the installer context as Per User as the installation won’t work properly in the SYSTEM context.

5. Once the Custom Software is deployed and the installation is commenced the UAC prompt will appear and the user have to accept it. Users without local Admin privileges can't accept the prompt.
