New submission from Peter Suter <petsu...@gmail.com>:

For example Anaconda Python is registered under 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Python\ContinuumAnalytics\Anaconda36-64\ as 
described in PEP 514 "Python registration in the Windows registry" .

The py launcher from PEP 397 however ignores that and only considers 
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Python\PythonCore\ registrations.

There seems to be no mechanism to register Anaconda Python with the py 
launcher. Anaconda considers this a bug in the Python launcher.

Shouldn't this be possible? Maybe via py.ini [defaults]?
