I had this issue too, I realised that I had installed the 32bit version on a 
machine running 64bit. So I uninstalled and installed the 64bit and it's fine 
now.

[issue16365] IDLE for Windows 8

2012-12-21 Thread amundell 

amundell added the comment:

I had a similar issue in Win8, but occured after installing another program. My 
issue was related to the TCL_Library environment variable. If it is related to 
this error it can be confirmed by opening the command prompt, changing dir to 
cd c:\python33\ and typing python. Once python has started write import 
idlelib.idle. If idle does not start, read the errors and check to see if a 
TCL-related error has been generated. If this error has occured change the 
environment variable (ControlPanel\right click System\change settings\advanced 
tab\environment variable\select TCL_Library. Alter the the path to 
C:\Python33\tcl\tcl8.5. idle should then start. However you may have 
issues/conflict with other installed programs that access the TCL_Library. Hope 
this helps.

Martin v. Löwis added the comment:

Unfortunately, there is not much to check now that you got it working. Doing 
what Roger first asked for might have given insights, but we can now not 
determine the issue anymore.

So closing this as works for me.

Roger Serwy added the comment:

Can you launch Python from a command line and then launch IDLE from there?

cd c:\python33
python

After python starts, enter the following:

import idlelib.idle

2012-10-30 Thread Roger Serwy 

Roger Serwy added the comment:

I wonder if there is a bug in the Python installer on the new Windows 8 
platform, though it is unlikely. 

I will leave this issue open for Windows 8 developers to comment. (I don't have 
Win8 for testing just yet.) Feel free to close.
