Thanks. You are right... but it is not enought. This command: echo %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE% give the statut: 32: x86 64: AMD64 and DIR C:\Windows\System32\SoundRecorder.exe is OK in 64, not in 32. But if, in 64 mode, I copy SoundRecorder.exe to sr.exe, then I rename sr.exe to sr.txt, the file (which is not an executable) is not visible in 32 mode. And, if I move (or copy) sr.txt in an USB-drive, the file become visible in 32 mode !!!??? Therefore, Windows has a "trick" for mark the file like visible, or not, in 32 mode. What trick? OK, it is not a Python problem. Then... thanks again for your explanations. @-salutations -- Michel Claveau -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
