Old question, but...

On Windows, you dont need create a new build system or specify the absolute path. Edit already existing python build system.

1. In SublimeText\Data\Packages\ create folder Python -> like this SublimeText\Data\Packages\Python\
2. In this folder, create file Python.sublime-build , it will overwrite the existing python build system.

3. In this file write (python launcher documentation):

   {
       "shell_cmd": "py -u \"$file\"",
       "file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
       "selector": "source.python",
       "env": {"PYTHONIOENCODING": "utf-8"},
   }
   

4. For choose version of python interpretator, in the first line of your scripts write (shebang lines)

   • #! python or
   • #! python3
