Bug report

When I invoke a python launcher of version 3.11.0 with "py" command, a python launcher fails to start process.

Step to reproduce

  1. Install python 3.11.0 with py launcher for all users.

  2. Invoke "py" in command prompt.

  3. I expect to launch a python interpreter, but got a error as below

    >"py"
    Unable to create process using 'C:\Python311\py"':  The system cannot find the file specified.
    Debug output when enable PYLAUNCHER_DEBUG
    >"py"
    argv0: py
    version: 3.11.0
    SearchInfo.originalCmdLine: "py"
    SearchInfo.restOfCmdLine:
    SearchInfo.executablePath: (null)
    SearchInfo.scriptFile: (null)
    SearchInfo.executable: py"
    SearchInfo.executableArgs: (null)
    SearchInfo.company: (null)
    SearchInfo.tag: (null)
    SearchInfo.oldStyleTag: False
    SearchInfo.lowPriorityTag: False
    SearchInfo.allowDefaults: False
    SearchInfo.allowExecutableOverride: False
    SearchInfo.windowed: False
    SearchInfo.list: False
    SearchInfo.listPaths: False
    SearchInfo.help: False
     -V:3.11          C:\Python311\python.exe
     -V:3.10          C:\Python310\python.exe
     -V:3.9           C:\Python39\python.exe
     -V:3.7           C:\Python37\python.exe
    env.company: PythonCore
    env.tag: 3.11
    # about to run: C:\Python311\py"
    Unable to create process using 'C:\Python311\py"':  The system cannot find the file specified.

I think this error seems to be similar to #95285. If I invoke py or "py.exe", a python interpreter starts well as I expected.

>py

In version 3.10.8, all of "py", py and "py.exe" start a python interpreter correctly.
