Fixes #2344 (comment).
Even though
C:\Windows\System32
should be part of the PATH environment variable by default (source), there might be cases where this entry is missing andutils.cpu_count()
could fail becausewmic.exe
could not be found.This PR also improves the error handling in that function by also using the logical CPU count as a last resort for FileNotFoundErrors and by showing some information about what went wrong.
