Cannot redirect output when I run Python script on Windows using just script’s name

Are you asking about this?

Windows: When executing Python scripts on the command line using file type
associations (i.e. starting “script.py” instead of “python script.py”),
redirects may not work unless you set a specific registry key. See
the Knowledge Base article STDIN/STDOUT Redirection May Not Work If Started from a File Association.

It’s in the Python README. Perhaps this patch is what you’re looking for.
