[issue21973] Can't use Idle

Thanks, I backed that file on to a memory stick and deleted it. I made a shortcut to the idle batch file on the desktop. When I click on it, Idle comes up fine.
What has happened here? What is config-extensions.cfg for and why has it stopped Idle coming up? And  why can Idle work without it? In any case, I am now able to work on my little programs.
Thank you again.
Tomk

If you would delete this file: C:\Users\Tomk\.idlerc\config-extensions.cfg (back it up some place else just in case). Does it start? and if not, would you mind re-running the same command again?
