Issue 4344: crash upon launch (original) (raw)

Hi

I'm new at programming and have chosen to start with python, and so I have installed python 2.6, and played around with it a little. However, a problem has occured: yesterday when i tried to run the program - pythonwin editor 2.6.0 - a crash occured immediately upon launch. All i do is start up the program, and while trying to open, the program crashes, and a windows error window pops up, telling me that 'the program has encountered an error, and will now exit' - not telling me anything useful about what kind of error has occured, or why. As usual, the windows errorreport is of no use. And so I have little idea of what causes the crash, but I do have a suspicion that the .dll mfc90.dll might be a part of the problem, since it is mentioned in the beginning of the errorreport.

Looking forward to hear from you.
