I was able to install various versions of Python (3.5.0b4 32bit being

However pythonw.exe did not and does not work. I was simply returned to
the command prompt, without ANY interaction or error.

Normal behavior.
Try
> python -m idlelib
or, if that does not start 3.5,
> py -3.5 -m idlelib
and you should either see Idle or an error message
If Idle is starting but not connecting, as you seems to say, there there
is a problems with your network socket configuration or another program.
Adding -n at the end of the command line will will bypass that, though
you could have other problems in certain situations.
Please see my Who uses IDLE? thread.
