In addition if i right click and select Edit with IDLE, again version 2.7 interpreter opens. How can i make python 3.3 the default one, as i need this cause i have PyQt4 installed there and so it does not work with 2.7 . > Thx in advance. > That was one of the choices you were presented with during the install. It defaults to making the newly installed one the default, but there was a checkbox or something. (It's been years since I did a Windows install, so I don't really remember) Anyway, if Wolfgang's link doesn't do it for you, consider re-installing 3.3. It should just go on top of the existing one, and the only change should be that it would then become the default one. -- DaveA
