I had py 2.5.2 installed (Yes, I know it's old) on my Win 7
64-bit PC earlier this year, but it began to fail back in
June. I tried a uninstall/install, but that got me nowhere.
I tried again yesterday. Uninstalled, then puzzled over
whether I should delete the remaining python25 folder. There
were a few files in it. Nothing that looked relevant of use
any longer. I did notice several Remove....exe files for
numpy, scipy and others. Rather than chance messing up
python25, I renamed it, then installed 2.5.2.
I found that every time I tried to activate a py file, or open
it in IDLE, I would get an error that said something like
this:
c:\Users\blah\...\junk.py is not a valid Win 32 app. (or
idle.pyw)
Comments?
Sounds like a problem with Windows' file associations /
default programs settings.
Go to Control Panel / Programs / Default Programs / Set your
default programs. I'm guessing that ".py" and ".pyw" are
still set to be opened by a Python installation that isn't
there anymore. Fix that, and you should be golden.
