IDLE won't start in Python 2.5 for Windows
I have Python 2.5 and Windows XP SP2. For a while, IDLE worked, but now it doesn't. The last time I was using it, I was changing some keyboard shortcuts, then the window suddenly disappeared. Since then, I haven't been able to start it. When I try to start it, I see pythonw.exe come up on my Task Manager for about a second, then disappear. Other than that, I don't see any hint as to what is happening. The Python command line works fine. I tried rebooting, repairing Python, uninstalling and reinstalling Python, and upgrading to version 2.5.1, but I still haven't fixed the problem. Is there anything else I can do to fix it?

How would I go about cleaning the registry? What specifically should I look for? Should I use any registry cleaner programs? Where are the IDLE preference files stored? When I uninstalled Python, it seems like everything was gone except for a few personal .py and .pyc files. Elias -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I opened a command window in my Python25 folder and tried typing pythonw. I just got another command prompt as if the program ran but didn't do anything. It looked like this: C:\Python25>pythonw C:\Python25> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I was able to start IDLE from the command line, and reset my keyboard shortcuts. It works fine now. In case this happens again, where would I find the config file? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
