Windows can't find the file on subprocess.call()

I am getting the following error: WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified My code is: subprocess.call(["<<executable file found in PATH>>"]) Windows 7, 64 bit. Python 3.x latest, stable. Any ideas? Thanks,
When the command is a shell built-in, add a shell=True to the call. E.g. for dir you would type: import subprocess subprocess.call('dir', shell=True) To quote from the documentation: The only time you need to specify shell=True on Windows is when the command you wish to execute is built into the shell (e.g. dir or copy). You do not need shell=True to run a batch file or console-based executable.
