ERRORLEVEL is an internal state of the CMD shell. It has nothing to do with Python. If Python exits due to an unhandled exception, the process exit code will be 1. If CMD waits on the process, it will set the ERRORLEVEL based on the exit code. But CMD doesn't always wait. By default its START command doesn't wait. Also, at the interactive command prompt it doesn't wait for non-console applications such as "pythonw.exe"; it only waits for console applications such as "python.exe". -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
