Re: Problems with IDLE in Windows 8.1 and installer x86 Version 3.10.8

Yes, there is always the message “modified successfull”, “installed sucessfully”, but IDLE does’t start. I tried it with the newer Version, too. Ist 3.11.0 for 32 bit, but it also doesn’t work. Do you have other suggetions, that it works?

Did you try what I suggested? Modify the installation to remove the
tkinter/IDLE component. Then modify it again to select the component
to be reinstalled. Also, try to repair the installation. This may
reset any DLLs or extension modules that were missing or that were the
wrong version.

Ignore the suggestion from Nithish to install tkinter via pip. tkinter
is part of the standard library and cannot be installed via pip. There
is no tkinter package on the Python package index (pypi.org).
