Category: Installation Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jean M. Brouwers (jbrouwers) Assigned to: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Summary: Bad IDLE shortcut by 2.4 installer on XP Initial Comment: There is a problem with the Python 2.4 installer on Windows XP. The IDLE shortcut set up by the installer in the StartUp folder does not work. If the shortcut is removed and recreated manually, it works fine. That was *after* a complete reinstall of Python 2.4 and after removing the previous version of Python 2.3 on the machine. With Python 2.3 present, the IDLE shortcut installed by Python 2.4 runs the 2.3 version. See also <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1074873&group_id=5470&atid=105470> and <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2004-August/237357.html> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.

Maybe the space in the name is causing the problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v.
