Setup tools for python cannot be installed.

I am trying to install Setupools for python using Windows PowerShell.

Based on the above mentioned YouTube, I am proceeding with the procedure of the video, but it didn't go well.

Apparently, an error occurred because the Python executable stored in the sys.executable variable specified in line 44 of ez_setup.py could not be found.

What values do I see when I do the following?

 python-c "import sys; print sys.executable"

The expected value is 'C:\Python27\python.exe', but if not, that's probably the reason. You need to investigate whether Python installation itself was a bad procedure.
