After installation of the .msi installer, pythonw.exe will not execute. Also, IDLE no longer appears anywhere.

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 How do you know that pythonw does not execute? It works fine for me (and, indeed, IDLE is started with pythonw).

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 If pythonw is started without an argument, it immediately quits.

Logged In: YES user_id=769736 In that case, it must be working perfectly. IDLE does work OK. I thought that clicking on pythonw used to start the program, but it must be OK now. Sorry for the comment.
