Eryk Sun <eryk...@gmail.com> added the comment: The exec functions provided by the Windows C runtime really are practically useless, due to creating an orphaned process, disrupting synchronous operation, and returning the wrong status code. It might be more useful for Python 3.7.x to implement an internal win32_execv[e] function that calls _wspawnv[e] with _P_NOWAIT mode. Assign the child process to a silent-breakaway, kill-on-close Job. Wait for it to end, and exit with the child's status code.
