Wayne, I sympathize with your problems, but they are Windows problems, not
Python problems, and have absolutely nothing to do with learning to program
Python. You are spamming this mailing list with off-topic questions about
fixing your Windows system. This list is about learning Python programming,
not "we'll fix any problem that has some vague connection to Python, no matter
how slight". Have you tried asking for help on Windows-related forums or
mailing lists?
It has been many years since I've used Windows regularly, but I can tell you
this: you don't do yourself any favours by installing and uninstalling
programs under Windows. I know it is less than helpful, but my advice is
*never* install any program you aren't sure you will want to keep, because
uninstalling always leaves traces of crud behind, eventually leading to
exactly the sorts of problems you are experiencing.
