11 years ago Odd. I don't get any errors on Windows 8 Pro installing virtualenvwrapper-win using the latest easy_install or pip. Pasting from another issue I just commented on:
Try again with the latest setuptools. There's been some funny issues with the past couple releases, but the latest works for me (tested today with both Python27 and Python33).
The pypi instructions now note the best way to install setuptools is by downloading this script:
https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py
For example, I've downloaded it to C:\Downloads. Then with C:\Python27;C:\Python27\Scripts in my PATH:
C:\Downloads>python ez_setup.py
. . . . (a bunch of installation messages)...

Cleaning up...Though I'd recommend pip:

C:\Downloads>easy_install pip

C:\Downloads>pip install virtualenvwrapper-win
This is my easy_install error

It continues to go from there but this seems consistent with where my pip install errors as well.
