Python launcher invoked with command "py" fails to start process #99442
Description
Bug report
When I invoke a python launcher of version 3.11.0 with "py" command, a python launcher fails to start process.
Step to reproduce
-
Install python 3.11.0 with py launcher for all users.
-
Invoke
"py"in command prompt. -
I expect to launch a python interpreter, but got a error as below
>"py" Unable to create process using 'C:\Python311\py"': The system cannot find the file specified.
Debug output when enable PYLAUNCHER_DEBUG

I think this error seems to be similar to #95285. If I invoke py or "py.exe", a python interpreter starts well as I expected.
