I just encountered this error with an older version (2.6.2) of python on Windows Server 2008 R2.

From looking at the logs it looks like the Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) functionality is causing this problem because it has a scheduled task (Application Experience\ProgramDataUpdater) which runs every day at 12.30am, even if you are not participating in the CEIP (i.e. it is not sending the info to Microsoft). After a quick look around, it seems like the scheduled task collects program information to report to Microsoft, which must cause the side-by-side when it loads the EXE to get version information.

Based on Martin's comments I plan to just remove this file, until we work out what version of python this was fixed in and upgrade.
