Hmm, well with all our files in the same places and very different results when we click on Python Shell, it seems likely.

This sounds like the issue you are having now. Poser startup error

I was part of that forum. We never reached a definite answer back then. There's talk about adding paths to files- something I've never even attempted.

"@Y-Phil I dug a little deeper into wx.py and found that it's failing to load _stc.pyd. Turns out that the damn thing is a actually a DLL. So, I threw it into walker and it failed to find most of its dependencies, which are mostly core python DLLs in the Poser app folder. After manually adding that path into walker, it was able load them correctly. So, the problem is that somehow python in Poser isn't finding it's own DLLs when loading _stc.pyd?"

@Y-Phil Yeah, I have the same file in PP11. I'd thought about it being a file collision issue and checked windows to be sure, but turned up nothing. However, rebooting seems to solve the problem--at least temporarily. Something is probably screwing with the paths it checks to resolve dependencies and rebooting resets the path list. Not sure what's doing it. I've tried opening many of my common apps, but no issues so far."

This was- and is- over my head, but it sounds like the file- wx.py- needs to be re-written.
