Try fixing it as described here (use python 3.6 or above though, not 3.5): http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37128260/python-3-5-for-windows-missing-tkinter

JanSam commented 7 years ago

I am using Python 3.6.

arvehj commented 7 years ago

Did you make sure tkinter was installed as described in the link? I did not say that you are not running 3.6, only that the link talks about 3.5.

JanSam commented 7 years ago

Not yet. I am not very good at PC's , so i have to look into it som more.

I can't find tkinter in the downloaded zipped program. However i tried the web-installable file, and tkinter was included in that one. But i can't open arve's tool in that one! It doesn't find Python? But i have to ask: after downloading the zipped program, how is it installed? Just unzip it?

To the right is content of web-installed 3.6, and as you can see it contains tkinter. To the left is zipped file, and i have just unzipped that one, but can't find tkinter anywhere in those files. img_4535

python-3.6.0-embed-amd64.zip is not a full python installation. If that what you are using to run menu.py that is probably what is causing all your problems.

You should download and (re)run the installer. I would expect both the "executable installer" and "web-based installer" to work, but I have not tried the "web-based installer".

You should make sure "Python Launcher for Windows" gets installed as decribed in https://docs.python.org/3.6/using/windows.html.

Finally ! Got some time to experiment more today, uninstalled everything and did a executable install and crossed of every option in the installer and Voila: it worked.

Thank you so much for helping me, Arve, you rock :) Now i can begin testing gammas :)
