Yikes. I gave the permissions for .idlerc above. The problem is with

Can you open it in Notepad from the same command prompt?
ie. is it just idle that can't open it, or is it any program?
Opens with Notepad and jEdit from the menu off a py file.
I'm suspicious of the "Unknown Account(S-1-21-lots of digits)" seen in
Properties' Security tab. It seems bizarre and has read and read&execute
properties only. "Unknown User" exits for txt and jpg files, so it's not
isolated to py.
Perhaps there's an ownership problem; however, Owner (recent-files.lst)
is: solarblast\Wayne. That's me.
I'm looking at the General tab of .idlerc. Attributes Read-only check
box is blue. If I click on it, it goes white. If I click again, it shows
the check mark. Eventually, I get back to blue.
I'm now looking at Properties-General for recent-files.lst, and Read
-only check box is white. Presently, I do not know if this amounts to
anything.
I see recent-files.lst is openable with Word.
I see mydir_math.py is opened with python.exe!!?? True of other py files.
