Python Release Python 3.7.7

Python 3.7.7

Release Date: March 10, 2020

Note: The release you are looking at is Python 3.7.7, a bugfix release for the legacy 3.7 series which is now in the security fix phase of its life cycle. See the downloads page for currently supported versions of Python and for the most recent source-only security fix release for 3.7. The final bugfix release with binary installers for 3.7 was 3.7.9.

The Python 3.7 series contains many new features and optimizations.
Please see What’s New In Python 3.7 for more information.

Windows users

  • The binaries for AMD64 will also work on processors that implement the Intel 64 architecture. (Also known as the “x64” architecture, and formerly known as both “EM64T” and “x86-64”.)
  • There are now “web-based” installers for Windows platforms; the installer will download the needed software components at installation time.
  • There are redistributable zip files containing the Windows builds, making it easy to redistribute Python as part of another software package. Please see the documentation regarding Embedded Distribution for more information.

macOS users

  • Please read the “Important Information” displayed during installation for information about SSL/TLS certificate validation and the running the “Install Certificates.command”.
  • As of 3.7.7, we provide one installer: 64-bit-only that works on macOS 10.9 (Mavericks) and later systems. The deprecated 64-bit/32-bit installer variant for macOS 10.6 (Snow Leopard) is no longer provided.
  • As of 3.7.7, macOS installer packages are now compatible with the full Gatekeeper notarization requirements of macOS 10.15 Catalina including code signing.
