I wrote a script in python that was supposed to copy a bunch of files to system32 and then install them through cmd.

I can do it manually but I'm trying to make it automatic. This is what I wrote:

Import shutil

Import os

L = ['file1.type', 'file2.type'.... ]

dst = "C:\Windows\system32"

For f in L: shutil.copy(f, dst)

os.system("cmd command yada yada...")

And it doesn't work. I tried doing it step by step with idle and it worked fine. All the files are in the same directory as the script. What am I missing here?
