Success!
I did the following to grant myself access to the "\HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Python.File" key
1) right click on the problem key
2) select Permission and click OK
3) add yourself to Group or user names
4) give yourself Full Control
5) click Advance
6) Choose Owner tab
7) Change Owner to yourself and check the box to Replace owner ... and click OK
8) Ignore the Access denied error message
9) click OK twice

I have now successfully run the "python setup.py test" with the following results
Ran 839 tests in 384.168s

PASSED (skips=15, expectedFailures=3, successes=821)

Thanks for your help
