Sometimes the gen_py directory, which registers Python
as a Windows scripting language, gets corrupted. Unfortunately, when
that happens it is not sufficient to run the package's script to
installs that directory, because that script doesn't do anything in that
situation: it sees that the directory is already installed, but it
doesn't detect the corruption. This ticket needs to do three things:
modify install-python.cmd adding a step to detect
and remove gen_py
create a new script to just remove and recreate that directory
modify the instructions to explain this problem and its solution
