[New-bugs-announce] [issue16131] Pylauncher is being installed in Windows system folder

[Piotr Dobrogost]

New submission from Piotr Dobrogost:

Pylauncher in Python 3.3 is being installed in Windows system folder instead of Program Files folder. That's against platform rules. It should be installed in the same folder Python is installed or in its own folder under Program Files folder. In the former case this folder starting from Python 3.3 is added to PATH, in the latter case there should be an option in installer to add Pylauncher's folder to PATH.
