When you say "the latest version" - does an older version work for you currently?

Does this look related to #304 by any chance?

If you run this script in Python, does it lead to the same issue?

from tkinter import Tk
from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename

root = Tk()
root.withdraw()
root.wm_attributes('-topmost', 1)
file_path = askopenfilename(parent=root)
root.update()
print(file_path)

Yes, Python 3.9.19 encountered the same problem when running.

root.withdraw()

Delete the code line above and it will be normal.

Great find, however when removing root.withdraw(), I imagine there is another small window that appears which looks like this:

Do you also get this same window?

Aside from answering that question, could you also try this:

from tkinter import Tk
from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename

root = Tk()
root.withdraw()
# root.wm_attributes('-topmost', 1)
file_path = askopenfilename(parent=root)
root.update()
print(file_path)

Wondering if root.wm_attributes('-topmost', 1) is the issue as it's trying to interact with a window that's no longer there.

No, the problem is not solved.

I tried to change the code, and the final code is as follows. You can refer to it, and my test here is already working properly.

# -*- coding: UTF-8 -*-

from tkinter import Tk
from tkinter.filedialog import askopenfilename

root = Tk()
root.withdraw()

root.wm_attributes('-topmost', 1)
file_path = askopenfilename()
root.update()
print(file_path)

Oh, that's really interesting; dropping parent=root from the askopenfilename call. Thank you very much for testing this - I'll take a look at that parameter and see if it makes sense to drop.

Okay, 2.43.2 can be used now.

There are still some minor issues, such as after selecting a file once, when selecting the file again, the file selection dialog is in the background of the program instead of in the foreground, and you have to manually bring it up.

I've just put a change on the master branch that may fix this. Instead of creating a new tkinter.Tk object each time, only one is created.
