Hello: Thank you for your reply.
Here are the steps I took, and the error messages I get: I have a windows7 laptop with 64bit intel i3. 25Gb hard-drive space left, 5Gb usable RAM space. (at the time of installing Python) 1) on the first attempt I chose the default choice in installer. Installation did not give any errors whatsoever. I then installed PyCharm - again with default choice and successful. When I open PyCharm, it did not locate the Interpreter automatically. When I did guide it to the correct path for Python location, a Python window (labeled Modify Setup) opens with three choices: Modify, Repair, Uninstall. I tried Repair in one try (& repeated it couple of times later), and Modify choice in a later attempt. However every time I open a new Project in PyCharm I could not get past the Modify Setup window. 2) I checked 'Uninstall or Change a Program' window of Windows7 and confirmed Python 3.5.2(32-bit) and Python Launcher installed. I also went to the correct location in C:/Program Files (x86)/ directory and confirmed Python being present. 3) I uninstalled Python and reinstalled. This time I went with customized installation choice. I installed it in C:/Python/. Installation was successful by itself. However same error when I open PyCharm and try to put the actual file location in the Interpreter field of PyCharm. 4) I also went to DOS prompt or CMD screen, went to the directory where Python was located as follows: C:\Python>python exe -v. This returns several lines of information. For example: the first line is import _frozen_importlib # frozen. second line is import _imp # builtin import sys # builtin There are some 15-20 lines like this which start with the term 'import'. There are a few lines that start like this: # C:\Python\lib\__pycache__\codecs.cpython-35.pyc matches C:\Python\lib\codecs.py Thank you in advance for your help.
