I was told to start IDLE in a console with idlelib and see what python binary i was runnning IDLE with. Im using windows 10 and i guess console refers to the terminal window and i have no idea what they meant by "the binary its running with"

The simplest way to open the console on Windows is to press Win+R (the 
Windows key together with the r key that is). In the run dialog that 
appears then, type cmd and the console window should appear.
To start IDLE from there type:
py -m idlelib

Good luck,
