In Windows, realpath is currently an alias for abspath. Issue 14094 has a
pending PR that implements realpath, but it's waiting on improved tests and
final approval. I'm afraid it won't make it into 3.8.
I suggest using the resolve() method of a pathlib.Path. For example:
>>> os.system('subst W: C:\\Windows')
0
>>> pathlib.Path('W:\\').resolve()
WindowsPath('C:/Windows')
