Let's do a bit of house cleaning. Run the following commands in a command prompt:
reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\.py /f
reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\py_auto_file /f
reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\python.exe /f
reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\Applications\py.exe /f
reg delete HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.py /f
HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\.py is selecting the PyCharm2016.3 ProgId. This takes precedence over HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\.py, the key that selects Python.File. I expect this causes Explorer to automatically reselect the PyCharm2016.3 ProgId. Deleting it in combination with deleting "...\Explorer\FileExts\.py" may fix the problem, i.e. restore the Edit with IDLE menu.
The "...\Applications\python.exe" and "...\Applications\py.exe" keys were created by manually associating with the given executable. Note how the open commands have the script path (%1) but no command-line arguments (%*). It's harmless to delete these keys. |
