@haypo, I checked available info online and couldn't find any reference to byte file-paths were deprecated since Python3.2.
On the contrary, the 3.2 release notes [0] state:
"countless fixes regarding bytes/string issues; among them full support for a bytes environment (filenames, environment variables)"
----
Also docs for open 3.2 [1] and 3.5 [2] say that byte filenames are supported with no mention of deprecation.
Since this is already working properly in 3.5 for other systems besides ms-windows, and worked in 3.4x.
Dropping support on a single platform seems a rather problematic regression.
