IDLE will not open
#1
I have tried multiple times to get python to open, ut after running the application it shows this screen. It seems to be the standard command prompt, but how do I open IDLE? I have tried Ctrl+n to force a new window, but nothing works. Wall
Please help.

I am a windows 10 user

Have you tried just using any plaintext editor (such as notepad++, Atom, or VisualStudio Code)?

Idle is just a bad text editor, so if you can't use it, don't worry about it and move on.
