Install Python on Self Hosted Windows runner for Github Action

I am using Windows Server 2019 as a self hosted runner for my Github Actions. I need to install Python. Shall install this python as one time activity or through github action workflow every time that workflow is executed?

I came across this but this is confusing. Do I need to install using MSI installer? Also need to update PATH.

Solution

  • As with any runner, you need to have everything set up to be able to use it.
