I found the image and was able to view it after changing the name to end 
in .jpg.  What I see is the underscore of W in Window, but no 'Window'. 
Idle has no control over the title bar.  This suggests a problem with 
the tcl/tk GUI framework. tkinter

I presume you are claiming that the foreground color of the answer and 
of the cursor were changed to match the background.  I cannot tell if 
this is true from the image.  Perhaps the remove process is stuck in a loop.

My advice to upgrade still stands.
