I'm a newbie with the most basic question. I want Python installed on an old Win7 laptop. I downloaded version 3.8.15 and 7zip to unpack it. I now have a Python-3.8.15.tar file. (88.8MB) It looks like I still need to install. Win7 doesn't recognize .tar extension. Do I need to download something else to enable the install?
