In chapter 3.1.2. Removing the MAX_PATH Limitation of https://docs.python.org/3/using/windows.html#removing-the-max-path-limitation (also in 3.9 and 3.10), it is written that "(Use of bytes as paths is deprecated on Windows, and this feature is not available when using bytes.)" but my understanding is that since 3.8 bytes paths are _not_ deprecated any more under Windows (and it is good so!), which makes unclear if the feature is still not available with bytes paths. In which case, it should be implemented. I'm sorry I couldn't test if it actually works or not but I'm stuck with Python 3.7 where I guess the statement is still correct, but I hope to see the issue fixed once I can upgrade :-) |

That's correct, though I thought PEP 528 and 529 applied earlier than that? Around 3.6, I thought. Feel free to make a doc update though. That reference is definitely out of date. |

The question is if only the statement that bytes are deprecated is wrong, but also if the long path feature is supported with bytes or not. As written, I'm a Linux guy, I don't feel like I have the pre-requisites to check this properly. |

Python now decodes bytes back into a str when used as a path, so the behaviour is identical. Someone else might feel comfortable doing the patch, I didn't mean to imply that you had to. Only that it is a valid fix and won't be a waste of time. |
