Python encoding in windows. No output

Python Help
1

I am using powershell mcp.

I can’t get the output of subprocesses when I am doing it. It basically runs powershell with node-powershell package and return the output. I was able to resolve it , but only if I add the reconfigure in python, which is not realistic.

Can someone explain what (the hell) happens here?

In this case only the second hello is printed.

[System.Console]::OutputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8
$OutputEncoding = [System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8
chcp 65001 | Out-Null
$env:PYTHONUTF8=1
$env:PYTHONUTF8=1
$env:PYTHONIOENCODING="utf-8"
Write-Host $(python -c "print('hello')")
Write-Host $(python -c "import sys; c=sys.getfilesystemencoding(); import sys; sys.stdout.reconfigure(encoding='utf-8');print('hello2');print(c);import os;print(os.getenv('PYTHONIOENCODING'))")

Here is the full output


```

PS C:\Users\ekarni> python -X utf8 -c "print('hh')"
PS C:\Users\ekarni> python -X utf8 -c "import sys;  sys.stdout.flush();print('hh')"
hh

seems like a bug
