RE: What is the difference between MIcrosoft C++ for Python and the regular Python?

Question

I've been having problems using Python lately. Microsoft had this older version 2.7 and then recently upgraded it to 3.7. 

This seems to be incompatible with the regular version of Python so I can't install any of the Intel AI Python products. 

1. What is the difference?
2. Where can I find detailed details so I can make a decision on whether to uninstall one or the other? 
3. Where exactly is the Microsoft version located on my computer?
