Based on the below, python.exe should be in
C:\Users\Ruud\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32
_tkinter should then be in
C:\Users\Ruud\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\DLLs

If you moved it, that is your problem.

If you have two python installations, with a second one in
C:\Users\Ruud\Python35, then python.exe should be in that directory, NOT 
scripts.

I know essentially nothing about PyCharm, even if it is compatible with 
tkinter.

With a screwed up installation, or pair of installations, it looks 
'everyplace' but the right place.

python.exe in scripts is not properly installed.
