A little knowledge helps. An upper word of 0x8007 indicates a COM
HRESULT error (0x8000) that originated as a Windows error (facility
7). Se we know that the lower word value of 0x0570 is a common Windows
error code that can be found in the following list:

You'll find that it's ERROR_FILE_CORRUPT, i.e. the file or directory
is corrupted and unreadable. The most likely cause is a bad download.
I wonder whether the OP used the web installer, which downloads
components as required. If there's something dubious about the way it
downloads from python.org, that would explain the relative frequency
of this error for 3.5 installs.
