I seem to have had the best direction of all the replies :)
Look at my last paragraph in the original post.
Turns out the embeddable python installation has a different default path setting. If you look at what I reported about system error, you will notice it's missing "" for the current path.
I scrapped that folder, installed regular python and everything works the same way that the tutorials talk about.
1. Very disappointing there's no Readme.txt in the embeddable version to mark the differences between it and the full Python (yes, I'd happily write one when I become a python expert)
2. Kinda disappointing that the tutorials don't mention different ways of installing python
