OK, I thought I understood this, but it's not quite working. I have the following directory structure: py3embed py3embed.manifest ... an unpacked Python 3.6b0 embedded distribution ssh.exe ssh.exe.manifest (ssh.exe is my embedded Python program) py3embed.manifest is <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <assemblyIdentity name="py3embed" version="3.6.111.1013" type="win32" processorArchitecture="amd64" /> <file name="python3.dll" /> <file name="python36.dll" /> <file name="vcruntime140.dll" /> </assembly> ssh.exe.manifest is: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0"> <trustInfo> <security> <requestedPrivileges> <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"/> </requestedPrivileges> </security> </trustInfo> <compatibility xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:compatibility.v1"> <application> <supportedOS Id="{e2011457-1546-43c5-a5fe-008deee3d3f0}"/> <supportedOS Id="{35138b9a-5d96-4fbd-8e2d-a2440225f93a}"/> <supportedOS Id="{4a2f28e3-53b9-4441-ba9c-d69d4a4a6e38}"/> <supportedOS Id="{1f676c76-80e1-4239-95bb-83d0f6d0da78}"/> <supportedOS Id="{8e0f7a12-bfb3-4fe8-b9a5-48fd50a15a9a}"/> </application> </compatibility> <application xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3"> <windowsSettings> <longPathAware xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SMI/2016/WindowsSettings">true</longPathAware> </windowsSettings> </application> <dependency> <dependentAssembly> <assemblyIdentity name="py3embed" version="3.6.111.1013" type="win32" processorArchitecture="amd64" /> </dependentAssembly> </dependency> </assembly> When I run ssh.exe, it fails with the message "The program cannot start because python3.dll is missing from your computer". I tried running it with sxstrace active, but the resulting log file is empty. I'm not sure where to go next debugging this. Do you have any suggestions?
