Eli Bendersky <eli...@gmail.com> added the comment: OK, I can reproduce the problem on a clean virtual machine running a pristine XP home SP2. No Python was previously installed.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Install Python 3.2.1 MSI from http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.2.1/ 2. Run IDLE from start menu 3. Close IDLE 4. A pythonw.exe process stays running after IDLE has exited Running steps 2-3 N times leaves N pythonw.exe processes alive ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12540> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
