deleting "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python 2.5" (Python 2.6 in my case)
works fine for me ... BUT ... on next start up of pythonwin editor a new
entry is created. So do I have to deleate
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python 2.5" *everytime* I use pythonwin?
There might be a better solution?

Do you have build 212? If so, it is expected the key will be re-created, but it should *not* fill with the garbage that caused the original problem. Can you tell us what is in that key?

Cheers,

Hi Mark!

I have built 211.1.
I figured out, that the problem is caused by the DWORD called "bars" in "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python 2.6\Python for Win32\ToolbarDefault-Summary". The default value of "bars" is 9 (decimal).

Using "Tools --> Browse Path" in PythonWin changes the value to 10 (decimal) and PythonWin won't start up. Setting the value back to 9 .. and everything works fine again. BUT ... the value is re-created every time.

cheers,
Matthias
