TODO	Code
Just run	subprocess.run(['dpkg', '-x', deb_path, ex_path])
Run with shell (Necessary on Windows)	args = 'wmic product get name,version'.split(' ') subprocess.run(args, shell=True)
Get stdout	args = 'wmic product get name,version'.split(' ') completed = subprocess.run(args, shell=True, capture_output=True) lines = completed.stdout.decode('cp950').split('\r\n')

Gracefully use subprocess.run() on Windows
