I meant your profile directory, "C:\Users\Nick". But printing the
package path showed the problem is in your Python 3 installation
itself.

This file should not exist. Python 3 stores .pyc files in a
__pycache__ subdirectory. It won't even run "idlelib\__init__.pyc" if
"idlelib\__init__.py" exists, so your installation is incomplete and
damaged. I suggest that you uninstall Python 3.5 and then completely
remove "C:\Python\Python35" before reinstalling.
