A copy of what I wrote elsewhere.

There are two possible reasons in 3.8.4 and 3.9.0b4 - non-ascii
characters and files created outside of IDLE.  Non-ascii chars was fixed
in 3.8.5 and 3.9.0b5.  Files created outside of IDLE work in 3.8.6, due
in September and 3.9.0rc1, released today.  If you do not need 3rd party
modules, use the latter.  If you do, create new files within IDLE with
File=> New.
