Paul Moore added the comment: Hmm, never mind. This is expected behaviour because the embedded distribution includes a ".pth" file which overrides the standard sys.path. For details, see https://docs.python.org/3.6/using/windows.html#finding-modules and https://docs.python.org/3.6/using/windows.html#embedded-distribution
Once again, please understand that the embedded distribution is *not* intended as a "portable version" of Python. It's a specialised distribution for a particular purpose. If you want a "copy and use" version of Python, I believe there's one available via nuget, but it's not supported by the Python core devs, and I don't have any details for you, other than this. So to confirm, Python is working as documented and there's no bug here. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue31056> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
