IDLE will not launch/Tcl install error Fix

Raw

If you use set TCL_LIBRARY=C:\Program Files\Python 3.5\tcl\tcl8.6 set the TCL_LIBRARY for current command session.So when you close your command prompt then it's not work. So the fix is go to System -> Advance System Setting -> Environment Variables

and set variables for user

    Variables name: TCL_LIBRARY
    Variables value: C:\Program Files\Python 3.5\tcl\tcl8.6

Then click ok, your setting saved.Now close the current command prompt open new command prompt and try

C:\Program Files\Python 3.5\Lib\idlelib>python idle.py

it will work.

Thanks
