You do not provide much detail to diagnose what your problem(s)
is(are).  By the "earlier one" is it the same version as the one you
re-installed?  Were you able to run IDLE with the "earlier one"?  By
not being able to import modules do you mean modules from Python's
standard library?  Or do you mean installing third party libraries
using pip?

Have you looked in your start menu in the list of installed programs
for Python?  If it is there did you expand it and see if there is an
entry for IDLE?  How have you been trying (unsuccessfully) to open
IDLE?
