currently we have an MSIX package deployed for python 3.9 on Windows 10 via app attach (vhd stage and register).

MSIX package deployed via app attach Everything works fine except the IDLE interpreter. Currently as a workaround we can call it via cmd using the python shell.

Call IDLE via python shell

However if we try to run it from start menu, nothing happens.

IDLE doesn't launch from start menu

We tried defining the system path environment variables for the same while creating the MSIX package (C:\Program Files\Python39\Lib\idlelib) but no success.

Any help is much appreciated.

  • what target is set to your IDLE start menu shortcut? Where does it point to? – Bogdan Mitrache Apr 04 '22 at 10:14
  • Hi Bogdan, as per local installation it point out to "C:\Program Files\Python39\Lib\idlelib\idle.pyw" , further checking on the App manifest for the MSIX package it points to "VFS\ProgramFilesX64\Python39\pythonw.exe" – Nalin Singh Apr 06 '22 at 08:28
