I've recently hit this problem (or one that has the same symptoms):
```

OSError: [WinError 87] The parameter is incorrect
```
I've tried Python 3.7.2 32-bit, 3.7.2 64-bit, and 3.6.8 64-bit on Windows 10.
The error occurs in a long running Python script after more than one and half
hours. The subprocess.check_output call at shell.py:33 is successfully called
hundreds, probably thousands, of times before failing.
I see that the issue is reported as resolved. But I'm not understanding what
is meant by
```
a new version of the code has been released
```
I'm running the latest version of Python, Python 3.7.2, from
https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/ (as well as the previous version
3.6.8). Is there a later version of Python I can try? Or do I need to get a
newer version of the Python subprocess module?
I'm new to Python and wasn't sure if I should reopen this issue or create a new
issue. Please let me know if there any additional information I can collect to
help debug this problem.
