Attempting to run tkFileDialog.askopenfilename() using Python 64-bit on Windows 7 crashes.

Running SysWOW64\cmd.exe:

Microsoft Windows [Version 6.1.7601]
Copyright (c) 2009 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

C:\Windows\SysWOW64>python
Python 2.7.11rc1 (v2.7.11rc1:82dd9545bd93, Nov 21 2015, 23:25:27) [MSC v.1500 64
 bit (AMD64)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import Tkinter
>>> Tkinter.Tcl().eval('info patchlevel')
'8.5.15'
>>> import tkFileDialog
>>> filename = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename()

C:\Windows\SysWOW64>


The application abruptly stops.

Running the same application with Python 32-bit does not crash.
