Hi,

Please follow the advice I gave you on Github. Other than that, I'd like to ask you if you have a Windows user name that has non-ascii letters on it. That could be other thing that is causing your problem.

And yet another advice is to look for and remove our configuration directory, which is called .spyder2 (notice the dot at the beginning of it).

Cheers,
Carlos

I've been trying to solve this problem for weeks, to no avail. Please note I am a technical person, but hardware, not software.

Here's the issue. I had the old Spyder 1.7.0/pyt2.7 working for years on my laptop, Win 7, 32-bit. I recently uninstalled it and reinstalled Spyder 2.3.4-pyt2.7.

When:

I launch spyder from:

1. The Spyder Windows icon
2. From the windows command prompt
3. From the Anaconda command prompt
4. From the python command line
5. From the windows command prompt with defaults (spyder --defaults)

It always results in a crash, followed by "python.exe has stopped working" (or sometimes "pythonw.exe has stopped working"). This usually happens when the splash screen says "loading file explorer"

What I have tried that does not fix the problem:

1. Uninstalling and reinstalling
2. Resetting spyder (spyder --reset)
3. deleting the .spyder2 directory
4. changing the spyder config file, to disable the explorer. This results in the crash happening when the splash screen says "loading namespace...."

The only information I receive from windows is the an applications crash, and the offending application is python27.dll.

I'm out of ideas and need help. I am willing to do the work and send whatever info required to solve this problem, but I need a guru to lead the way.

Thanks
