It was the only explanation that fit your symptoms.  When files in
System32 magically disappear when you run a 32-bit Python, the only
reasonable explanation is that you are seeing file system redirection on
a 64-bit system.  It was actually just an educated guess, but I made it
sound like an established fact in order to enhance my reputation as a
miracle worker.  ;)
