It states at:

https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_windows

that the output should be:

Hello, TensorFlow!

but when I run the same 4 lines I get:

b'Hello, TensorFlow!'

noting the additional '' and letter b.

The additional '' and letter b appear because it is a byte string (and not a unicode string). If you decode it by running

print(sess.run(hello).decode())

You will get 

Hello, TensorFlow!
