I followed instructions mentioned here
=======
Windows
=======
Introduction
============
Plone's Unified Installer may be used to install Plone on Windows 10 for development, evaluation or testing purposes.
Windows is an uncommon choice for production (live, Internet-connected) purposes; it's possible to do it, but requires Windows integration experience that's not common in the Plone Community. Using Windows for development, evaluation, testing and training, though, is no problem.
Prerequisites
=============
The Unified Installer is installed and operated via the Windows Command Prompt.
You will need expertise adequate to open a command prompt, navigate the file system and execute programs via the command prompt.
There are many excellent tutorials available, such as `Windows Command Prompt in 15 Minutes <https://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/spr05/cos126/cmd-prompt.html>`_.
Requirements
============

i have installed python 2.7.15 and Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 .

I am getting the below mentioned error. I have only python 2.7.15 version installed. (I havent installed python 3).
Please help me resolve this issue and install plone successfully on my machine.

Try running buildout again (change to the installation target directory and run "bin\buildout").
For some reason, Windows occasionally refuses to rename a file that has recently been used. Perhaps it's a threading problem. In any case, trying again nearly always resolves the problem.

The POSIX API is not safe for manipulating files on Windows, so such flakiness is expected.
