[New-bugs-announce] [issue44542] Python 3.9.6 Can't Find `coverage`

[Floating Sunfish]

New submission from Floating Sunfish <sunfishscans at gmail.com>:

`coverage` does not work in Python 3.9.6 (but it does in Python 3.9.5).

It doesn't seem bundled with 3.9.6 because you can install it with `pip` (which normally says that it's already installed and doesn't install anything).

Note that `coverage.exe` and its variants are all present in "C:\Python39\Scripts."

The error I get is:

    Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using '"c:\python39\python.exe" "C:\Python39\Scripts\coverage.exe" run --source=. -m unittest -f ': The system cannot find the file specified.
