Hi, i am unable to open PsychoPy. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both PsychoPy and Python multiple times.

When i click to open PsychoPy nothing happens, sometimes a Python coding screen appears and then dissapears within seconds.

My laptop is up to date with Windows 10.

If anyone has any ideas of how to help that would be great!

Thanks.
