Answer 1

It looks like Windows 7 supports up to Python 3.8.18

https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-3818/

For a complete list of versions available:

Notice all higher releases do not work on Windows 7.

If you really want 3.9, I suggest setting up VirtualBox and install Linux on it. Then you can install any Python into the Linux virtual machine.

Answer 2

(some) Linux has python by default. that should be a great choice.
which Linux?
I've been an active Fedora "user" since 2012, but used it earlier as well.
for 32-bit use Debian.

Answer 3

It is safe to use windows 10. Later you will know that many software do not support window 7 like nodejs, blender, jetbrains ide etc and you will not have a choice.

I use linux too and there is Python by default but there is no IDLE that comes with Python for windows

Answer 4

The question would be why are you still using Windows 7? Upgrading or switching to Linux would be the wiser choice.
