[New-bugs-announce] [issue45432] sys.argv is processed strangely under Windows

[Paul]

New submission from Paul <paulhippler21 at gmail.com>:

here is my test file:
'''
import sys
print(sys.argv)
'''

when I then try 'python test.py ^test' the ^ character is stripped away, this doesn't happen on Linux. This also doesn't happen if I put ^test in quotes (only ") the ' quotes don't work
