It would be great if Python-Launcher.exe could start pythonw.exe instead of python.exe when we pass it a ".pyw" file as argument.

Are this launcher's sources available somewhere ?

Thanks a lot for your work.

    Added pythonw launcher to consequent release (python 3.7.4 onwards). If u need pythonw launcher in previous 3.7 release just copy the launcher 3.7.4 and put it in portable python folder and it should work .

    As for the source code... the launcher was created using NSIS. U can get the source code of the launcher by extracting the launcher exe using 7zip .

    (Please use bellow 7zip version to extract the launcher as latter versions do not support NSIS apps)

      I see no point in decompiling the executables when being under the MIT license there should be freely available source code-
