I have installed PythonWin from the <pywin32-212.win32-py2.6.exe>

encountered a problem ..." appears, and a drwatson error report is
generated.

Python 2.6 itself, from a cmd window or using IDLE, works without problem.

Hello Frank,

Have you tried uninstalling PythonWin and reinstalling it using the
Windows installer package? Is there any entry in the Event Viewer
application log when this happens?


Thanks for your reply, Allan. I am not sure what you mean by "the Windows installer package" -- a *.msi file?. I cannot find a *.msi file at Sourceforge, which is where the <pywin32-212.win32-py2.6.exe> came from. When I use the latter (I have uninstalled and reinstalled using this many times now!), I get no error entries in the Event Viewer. However, when I try to open PythonWin, the Event Viewer shows the following message:

"Faulting application pythonwin.exe, version 2.6.212.0, faulting module mfc90.dll, version 9.0.21022.8, fault address 0x0004453f."
