Do you know which versions of Windows this applies to? It works fine for me 
(though I'm up to date), and the file associations have not changed.

I've seen some suggestions that creating a symlink without the right file 
extension (e.g. python2 <<===>> python.exe rather than python2.exe) will fail 
in some cases, but that's easily avoided by getting the symlink right.
