If you see Command python setup.py egg_info failed with error code 1 when Installing Python, then the setup tool on your computer might not be installed or updated.

Placing malicious code in 'setup.py,' however, will allow malware to be installed and unnoticed even if the package, or Python itself, is not used at all.

setup.py is normally used by Python to install the module it’s associated with, and can also be used to direct Python to compile C extensions for that module.
