Thank you for your replies. I have been reading more and conclude that I/O 
programming on Windows and Linux are two different things.

Python is not cross-platform in the sense that a Python program always works on 
different operating systems but that you can make it work on different 
operating systems (most of the time).

My application uses the PyPi package cachelib. The file system interface is 
implemented in this file:

https://github.com/pallets/cachelib/blob/main/src/cachelib/file.py

This package uses os.replace and other file I/O methods. 

>From what I understand is that this package must be modified to also handle 
>WinError 5 and Errno 13 if you want to use it on Windows,
meaning more specific exception handling and adding retries and a delay for 
every I/O related function accessing the os.replace file.

Please correct me if I am wrong.
