[New-bugs-announce] [issue35148] cannot activate a venv environment on a Swiss German windows

[Martin Bijl-Schwab]

New submission from Martin Bijl-Schwab <martinbijlschwab at gmail.com>:

There is a small bug in the activate.bat script causing problems on internationalized Windows systems.

C:\repo\gui>python -m venv venv

C:\repo\gui>call venv\Scripts\activate.bat
Parameterformat falsch - 850.

This translates to "Wrong parameter - 850."

For the user it is not obvious what went wrong. 

The virtual environment is setup and will work in most cases.
