It may help to know which version of Windows you're using -- XP,
Vista, 7, 8, or 10?
help() may work after switching to a plain pager:
import pydoc
pydoc.pager = pydoc.plainpager
in which case, check whether the following prints "test":
pydoc.tempfilepager('test', 'more <')
If not, please reply with the traceback or error message, if any.
