I installed Python 2.6 for one user on Windows Vista. Python works okay, but when I try: import Tkinter, it says the side-by-side configuration has errors. I've tried tinkering with the Visual Studio runtime, with no good results. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

A:
It seems this is a one of the many weird Vista problems and some random reinstalling, installing/upgrading of the visual studio runtime or some such seems sometimes to help, or disabling sxs in the system configuration or writing a manifest file etc.
Though I think you should downgrade to windows XP.

If you search for "side-by-side configuration has errors" on google a lot of the entries mess around something with Visual studio and going from 2005 to 2008 and some specifically mention installing an upgrade to the runtime.

I use Tk on Vista with Python 2.5.2 ... haven't tried with 2.6
