The executable python3.5 (from --python=python3.5) does not exist

See original GitHub issue

Hey,

I’m trying to run this on Windows 10. After installing via pip I’m running into a couple separate issues

try is masked by Windows PowerShell’s try syntax
Running as a python m (python -m try requests) results in the error: The executable python3.5 (from --python=python3.5) does not exist

I’m using Python 3.5 installed to C:\Python35\python.exe

Any help would be great!
