The last path is used as a location to store libraries
you install yourself.

If I am using a virtual environment (with venv) this last
path is different

'C:\\Users\\jean-marc\\Desktop\\myenv\\lib\\site-packages'

I looked for windows environment variables to tell python
how to fill sys.path at startup but I didn't found.

So how does it work ?

I believe that the short answer, skipping the gory details provided by Eryk, is that the result is the same as
os.path.dirname(sys.executable) + r"\lib\site-packages"

You can check if this works for the venv.
