Thanks for the update. I'm not sure why the proper assignment of icons now
depends on the installation of the Python launcher (py.exe). The icons are
installed in the DLLs directory just like before. Perhaps I'm not familiar
enough with the purpose
New submission from Thijs van Dien:
Right clicking a Python file shows "Edit with IDLE" in the context menu, then
offering a next menu where one can choose which particular version of IDLE
should be used. This works fine. Whenever a shortcut is created to a Python
file, the same co
New submission from Thijs van Dien:
Whenever the Python launcher is selected, the installer sets the icon for
common Python file extensions, i.e. .py, .pyc, .pyo, .pyw, .pyz and .pyzw.
Formerly (under Python 3.4) the icons were located in DLLs in the Python
installation directory. The new

On the other hand, if the launcher is somehow strictly necessary, then why is
it optional?

New submission from Thijs van Dien:
Python 3.5.0 offers a web installer. This implies that the other installer
works offline. This is the case for the default component selection. When debug
symbols/binaries are selected, the setup fails with error code 0x80070642

If this turns out to be a Windows problem, I'd insist not to close it as such
but to find away around that. After all, in Python 3.4 there was no subcommand,
and all was fine. Do we really need that second level menu? I found it to be
less user-friendly
Thijs van Dien added the comment:
Terry, I'll write here not to open the old ticket (yet). I'd argue listing all
IDLE's under "Open with" is still the best option, rather than yet another menu
option. First of all, there is nothing conceptually different about opening the
file wi
Thijs van Dien added the comment:
That works fine, but then again the ticket only concerns the context menu of
_shortcuts_ to Python files. Opening Python files directly, either via "Edit
with IDLE" in context menu or directly via the CLI, has worked from the
