The simplest Python GUI editor is IDLE, which should come installed with 
with Python. On windows just open the start menu and type 'IDLE'

You can save your python files anywhere - you shouldn't need to save it 
in Python's working directory. Python doesn't impose any particular file 
system until you start implement features such as packages which are not 
something a beginner should ever worry about.
