I am trying to learn Python and I installed version 2.6 both at home and
at work. At home, on
Vista, everything works fine. At work, on XP, IDLE would not run. I
uninstalled/reinstalled
and got the same thing. My cursor changes to the wait symbol for a few
seconds, then goes
back to normal and ….nothing. The Task Manager shows nothing. I
uninstalled again,
made sure all the files were deleted from the disk, used regedit to
delte every registry entry
that had python in it and tried version 3.0.
Geuss, what? I still can’t run IDLE on XP? Is this a common problem?
Or am I unique?
Did you install "for all users" (as Administrator) or "just for me"?
The following instructions assume you installed Python 2.6 on C:\Python26
-- replace with your own directory if different.
Open a command prompt (go to Start, Run, type "cmd" and press Enter).
At the > prompt type:
c:\Python26\python -V
and press Enter. Should reply with the Python version. Then try with:
c:\Python26\python c:\Python26\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw
Should start IDLE, probably you get some error message; post it here.
