As Steven's pointed out, this looks more like a Windows permissions
issue. However, it would still be worth identifying what's going on, as
I haven't run Python on a 2012 box (and I doubt if many other people
have either). I'm getting a VM run up to try it out but that will take a
while.

It may be that some hardened security is preventing Python from reading
its own files. Could you, please, do the simplest of imports which
fails, and post the traceback from the console in its entirety? (In
other words, something like this):

"""
Python 3.3.3 (v3.3.3:c3896275c0f6, Nov 18 2013, 21:18:40) [MSC v.1600 32
bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import willnotimport
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'willnotimport'
>>>
"""

It would be good to know whether *anything* imports, ie whether stdlib
imports work, or whether it's just user-installed modules.


Thanks
