   In genral, if IDLE fails to start, start it from a command line (Command Prompt) and copy/paste the startup command and any error message. If you are running Microsoft Store python, 'python3 -m idlelib' should start IDLE.

   I suspect this report is a duplicate of #98324 (comment). Please see if the solution there works.
