2 years ago If you don't mind missing out on the very latest features you could just install the latest released version with installer. https://sourceforge.net/projects/easyabc/files/EasyABC/1.3.8/EasyABC-1.3.8.exe/download Then you will also get rid of the black Python window and the FluidSynth library is then installed along with it.
But if you want to start from python: The FluidSynth library not found can be solved by downloading the file https://github.com/FluidSynth/fluidsynth/releases/download/v2.2.1/fluidsynth-2.2.1-winXP-x86.zip and placing the contents of the folder 'bin' into \bin\FluidSynth\X86 and restarting EasyABC.
The last time https://sourceforge.net/p/easyabc/tickets/27/ I got this 'invalid backing store' error the reason was a negative width or height, but with the latest source you are using that should not occur anymore. You could try to edit easy_abc.py and in the function load_and_apply_settings change 'if load_window_size_pos:' to 'if False:' and the same for 'if load_perspective:' A better solution might be to move the block with 'if load_perspective:' before the 'if load_window_size_pos:' I was not able to reproduce the error you got with a shortcut with starting python minimized.

I start the Python version in Windows from a shortcut on my desktop set to run it minimized. I thus am only a click onto the taskbar away from running EasyABC with the black Python window tucked away on said bar.
Everything is running fine, only the minimized Python window on the taskbar gives me this:
