Python IDLE shell not opening

I am using Windows 8.1 and have installed OpenCV for Python 2.7. I was able to complete the installation. But I have not been able to open the python IDLE shell. Whenever I click on it, It opens for a second and disappears.

I did try all the steps mentioned in this link Python IDLE won´t start

Also I could not find the environment variable called TCL_LIBRARY in my system.

I am not sure what exactly the problem was. It might have been various versions conflict or just that my installation was not right. I removed every previously installed versions and started from scratch, and it seems to be working fine for now.
