Oops, I realised this morning that my initial post has an error (that
is what I get from writing from memory). I didn't upgrade from Python
2.2.2, but from Python2.3c1. And another significant detail is that I
chose a completely different location on the disk for the 2.3 final
installation. I wonder if Pythonwin is looking in the old Python2.3
location for something.
I added Python2.3 to the path environment variable, and got the same
results. I then went trough the registry searching for the old
Python2.3 folder. I found an occurrance inthe following key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\exe
I changed it to the new Python2.3 location, but Pythonwin still won't
start. Any ideas?
