My experience when I tried it on Windows 7:
0) Downloaded and installed it. For some reason the installer was in Spanish. Launched the IDE itself. Fortunately it was in English.
1) clicked file - new project, selected python, named it "test"
2) tried to type the project location, it wouldn't let me. Selected the project location via the "Examine..." button instead. (The filesystem browser launched in program files instead of my home folder.)
3) typed print("hello world") in __init__.py
4) hit F6 to run. This doesn't seem to do anything except pop up a save dialog. The only output I get is "Failed to start" with no further indication of what is wrong.
Chosing a "main file" in the project properties didn't seem to make any difference. I don't know how to make this thing execute code.
