Some OS functions which returns bytes (os.environb, os.getenvb(), os.getcwdb(), os.listdir(), os.readlink(), os.walk(), os.path.abspath(), os.path.expanduser(), os.path.expandvars(), os.path.realpath() and may be other) can return unusable result on Windows (see for example and ). The documentation should contains strong warnings about this.

I don't remember il the deprecation of bytes filename is documented.

As #13247 has been closed "not a bug" and #16656 "won't fix" shouldn't this be done sooner rather than later?

I've looked at the documentation for both Python 3.5 and 3.6, and I think this is all fine -- things like os.environb and os.getcwdb() are clearly stated as not available on Windows, and the path functions look to work fine in my testing.

Maybe this issue is outdated in 3.6 (thanks to PEP 529 ), but this still is a problem under 3.5 and 2.7.

This is now 2.7 only issue.

Python 2.7 is no longer supported.
