The distutils module _findvs is failing on my Windows 10 PRO machine with the following error: OSError: Error 80070002
Note: Building Python 3.6 in debug for some reason doesn't cause the error.
You mean build? Or use?
Can you share build logs?
Use, when distutils calls findall in the module, it results in the OSError being thrown.
Looks like something wierd about my computer as the powershell module that interacts with the API also has the issue with Windows reporting "File not found" for a 2nd instance (maybe Community edition of VS)
If you think it should be working, go ahead and use the Report a Problem tool in VS to let the team know about the PowerShell module. There might be a case that isn't handled properly in their code that they can fix (obviously they don't know/care about the Python module, but we are using the same API).
The powershell module that interacts with the API works if I don't supply "-All", supplying said option produces the same issue that is plagues me when _findvs.findall() is used.
Note: these values reflect the state of the issue at the time it was migrated and might not reflect the current state.
