You're using build 10074, an old build of Windows 10 that had a buggy Job object API. This was fixed in build 10159: http://bugs.python.org/issue24127 FYI, the py launcher runs Python in a job that's configured to kill Python if the the launcher gets killed. This is necessary if py.exe is started by a console shell such as cmd.exe or powershell.exe. The shell waits on py.exe, not python.exe. If the job didn't kill python.exe, then Python would compete with the shell for console input. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
