I too can not get idle to run on win 8.1 using python3.4.2 installed from the

What experience have others had with Idle and Windows 8?

I do not know what 'normal windows 8 interface' means, but does it work
for anyone else?
pythonw.exe appears in the task manager but no gui is displayed.
pythonw.exe should appear *twice* in task manager.
Please try 3.4.3rc1 and 3.5.0a1

If the Idle does not start correctly on Win 8, perhaps we could fix it
before 3.4.3 final (which should be soon).
