That's actually a shockingly short list of libs in there... do you have log files handy? They'll be under
%TEMP%\Python*.log, and the main one I'm interested in will end withdev(and probably be the latest date, in case you have multiple installs).da-woods commentedon May 28, 2024
Python 3.13.0b1 (64-bit)_20240528190955_004_dev_JustForMe.log
Here. Can provide other logs as needed.
I only have one install of 3.13 - I uninstalled and started from scratch for the sake of this issue.

Huh, no, it just looks like we've only ever shipped that few. I guess I'm so used to working with the Nuget packages that I had forgotten the MSI is more selective.
We should add the free-threaded libs to the old installer. We should also reduce the libs included in the other packages to avoid shipping too many files.

I'm afraid to discover it didn't make it to b2.... by any luck am I wrong ?

It should be fixed in b2 - the later fix is for scripts that aren't part of the release, so shouldn't make a difference.
If you're doing a clean install and not seeing the files, please grab your log files and attach those as well.
