One should include OS with failure questions and perhaps how installed.
Appears to be macOS, installed with ???
python3.8 -m idlelib.idle
For 3.x, '.idle' is not needed.
File

It is very much supposed to, so you installation seems faulty. I am
running IDLE on macOS with 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10, installed with the
python.org installer.
This is one of the few circumstances for which I suggest re-installing.
