In my answer to 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/37997715/idles-subprocess-didnt-make-a-connection-either-idle-cant-start-or-personal/38001829#38001829
I list all the possible reasons I know of.

A file of yours with the same name as a stdlib file is at least as 
common reason as antivirus/firewall software.

If you start IDLE from Command Prompt with 'python -m idlelib', you 
might get more information.
