The one for the latest version in the 3.x series could be outdated until I remember to update it.
The one for the latest version in the 3.x series could be outdated until I remember to update it.
Note about macOS: The version number indicates the SDK used to build it. For macOS 11/Universal 2 binaries, 10.9 is the minimum between 3.8 and 3.12.5; 10.13 is the minimum starting with 3.12.6.
'''Note about Windows:''' The [https://docs.python.org/dev/using/windows.html Python install manager] will replace the traditional executable installer starting with 3.16. This installer requires Windows 10 or Windows Server 2022 or later.

Installers for Windows and macOS

This is a list of the last Python versions that had installers for Windows and macOS.

The one for the latest version in the 3.x series could be outdated until I remember to update it.

Note about macOS: The version number indicates the SDK used to build it. For macOS 11/Universal 2 binaries, 10.9 is the minimum between 3.8 and 3.12.5; 10.13 is the minimum starting with 3.12.6.

Note about Windows: The Python install manager will replace the traditional executable installer starting with 3.16. This installer requires Windows 10 or Windows Server 2022 or later.

2.7.18 📦 📦 📦 Last version of 2.x
2.7.17 📦 📦 📦 📦 Last version with 32/64 macOS installer

For Windows, I made a PowerShell script to install multiple versions at once: /RunPythonInstallers.ps1

Distribution versions

  • Bold distribution versions indicates an LTS release (for distros with this distinction). Strikethrough indicates an EOL distribution. Italic indicates a beta distribution.
  • Bold Python versions indicates the default one (what you get if you install "python3" or equivalent). This only includes what's in the official repositories.
  • A "t" next to a version means a free-threading build is available.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux and derivatives

The actual versions are checked on Rocky Linux and AlmaLinux.

  • 14.1 - 3.11.10, 3.10.15, 3.9.20, 3.8.20, 2.7.18

Arch Linux

Usually updated to the latest release or is one point release behind. https://archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/python/

Unlike most other distributions, "python" on Arch Linux refers to 3.x and not 2.7.

SteamOS

Last updated: 16:32, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

  • 3.4 - 3.10.8
  • 3.5 - 3.11.3
  • 3.6 - 3.11.7
  • 3.7 - 3.13.1

Xcode (macOS)

Comes with the Command Line Tools and the full Xcode.app. The binary at /usr/bin/python3 depends on either being installed, like most of the development tools. If neither are installed, it automatically prompts for the Command Line Tools.

  • 13 - 3.8.9
  • 14 - 3.9.6
  • 15 - 3.9.6
  • 16 - 3.9.6

Homebrew (macOS)

Homebrew keeps the latest versions of each one supported by the PSF, excluding pre-releases.

MacPorts (macOS)

MacPorts has versions 3.2 to the latest stable release.

winget (Windows)

winget's repository contains Python versions 2.5 to 2.7 and 3.0 to 3.13. These download the installers from python.org.

The full list of versions is here: https://github.com/microsoft/winget-pkgs/tree/master/manifests/p/Python/Python

winget can also install the Microsoft Store versions.

Microsoft Store (Windows)

Since 3.7 and Windows 10 version 1903, Python is available from the Microsoft Store. Unlike the one from the installer, this is accessed with "python" and "python3", not "py".

These versions are sandboxed and may not work when you want to use it with other applications.

MSys2 (Windows)

MSys2 has Python 3.x and 2.x packages for each repository. Similar to Unix, the command is "python3" and "python2".
