If I have understood this correctly:

https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/issues/7295

and the explanation here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21466372/execution-of-interactive-command-in-remote-powershell-session-not-working/21466434#21466434

I think this is a limitation of Powershell, not Python.

But I am not a Windows admin and don't really understand Powershell, so 
I could be wrong.
