I'm developing a customised version of Python 3.7 for my school, mostly because they have the C drive blocked and IDLE's default save location is C:\Python33. I've got the source code because I'm also changing a couple icons and stuff, so how would I go about changing the default save location? I checked config.py in the idlelib folder but that only has references to <<save-window>> and that's just a keybinding to <Control-s>. Any help?
How to stop IDLE defaulting to C:\Python33 folder when saving

If I understand you correctly you want to configure python to default the save location to anything other than
C:\because you cannot access it.This can be done by either moving/copying the
Python3.3directory elsewhere (worked for me) thus changing the path variable which opens the saving dialog in the current directory or editing theIOBindingclass which can be looked up here:https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/idlelib/iomenu.py#L112
Let me know what worked for you.
