Eryk Sun added the comment: When you say "to be precise...C:/Windows/...System32", do you mean that this is the only directory that you've tested? If so, what you're seeing may be WOW64 file-system redirection, if your 2.7 installation is 64-bit and 3.6 installation is 32-bit, or vice versa.
In a WOW64 process, accessing the %SystemRoot%\System32 directory in most cases gets redirected to the 32-bit system directory, %SystemRoot%\SysWOW64. You can access the native system directory via %SystemRoot%\SysNative. ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29850> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
