Tried to extract Windows x86-64 embeddable zip file and execute it. But following error happened (3.6.0a1): Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: unable to load the file system codec ImportError: No module named 'encodings' Current thread 0x000017c4 (most recent call first): ---- Also tried release version 3.5.1, this version works fine.

The "python35.zip" file contains the standard library and it needs to be renamed "python36.zip". Apparently I hardcoded this somewhere instead of inferring it from the current version... I'll fix.

Yes this is the cause. If it is renamed to python36.zip everything works fine. For the test I have only extracted the distributed zip and executed python.exe. Had not looked further into the issue. So only the simple report something did not work. Thanks for looking at it and fixing.
