[issue38506] Launcher for Windows (py.exe) may rank Python 3.xx (in the future) after 3.x

[Steve Dower]

Steve Dower <steve.dower at python.org> added the comment:

We can backport it, but the latest version always wins. I deliberately designed the installer (which has multiple embedded MSIs in it) to make sure this worked, so that earlier versions won't overwrite the launcher (anymore).

Besides, this is a purely cosmetic change. PEP 514 describes how to programmatically get the list of versions (i.e. without using py.exe at all).
