[Python] Making file hidden in Windows using Python blocks file writing

I am trying to make a hidden file in Windows using Python, but after I make it hidden it becomes impossible to write. However, reading this file is possible.

import ctypes

with open("test.txt", "r") as f: print('test')

ctypes.windll.kernel32.SetFileAttributesW("test.txt", 0x02) # adding h (hidden) attribute to a file

with open("test.txt", "r") as f: print('test') # works
with open("test.txt", "w") as f: print('test') # error


Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\user\Documents\client\test.py", line 8, in <module>
with open("test.txt", "w") as f: print('test') # error
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'test.txt'


Using 0x22 (which is a attribute and h attribute) instead of 0x02 doesnt't help. The same error occurs. After making the file visible again via attrib -H test.txt it becomes possible to open it in write mode. However, as far as I know, hidden files should be writable in Windows.

OS: Windows 11

Python version: Python 3.10.2
