Terry J. Reedy added the comment: There used to be such a checkbox, but apparently it had problems. But there is still something with that effect, at least in part. When I installed 3.5.0, 'python' was switched from 3.4 to 3.5. That did not happen with the preliminary releases, because I did somethng different. Sorry, I don't remember what.
I don't like using the start menu over and over either. So I pin frequently used programs to the taskbar -- always visible. The 2.7 IDLE icon just says Python GUI. In 3.4, it is Python 3.4 GUI. Ditto for 3.5 and the future. Steve: when Firefox and some other programs upgrade, the pinned icon remains. When Python upgrades, the pinned IDLE icon disappears. When, as is normal, the upgrade is in the same directory, is there any way to leave the icon, since it still points to the right directory and filename? Or is this icon binary specific? ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25352> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
