Installed Winpython32-3.7.4.1 in a win10 desktop where there is also a separate python 3.71-32bit installation.
All works well, both in python and in spyder, except spyder debugger: when I try to start a simple script, even a simple print('hello') I see

.... (thousands of stack trace lines and then)
  File "C:\Users\sa160859\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\site-packages\pdb.py", line 163, in __init__
    self.config = self.get_config(self.ConfigFactory)
  File "C:\Users\sa160859\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\site-packages\fancycompleter.py", line 192, in get_config
    rcfile = os.path.expanduser(filename)
  File "C:\winpython\wpy\python-3.7.4\lib\ntpath.py", line 302, in expanduser
    if 'HOME' in os.environ:
  File "C:\winpython\wpy\python-3.7.4\lib\_collections_abc.py", line 666, in __contains__
    self[key]
  File "C:\winpython\wpy\python-3.7.4\lib\os.py", line 675, in __getitem__
    value = self._data[self.encodekey(key)]
RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded

I suspect there's something wrong with existing python installation or with some environment variable, but only in debugging.

I haven't admin rights in my work PC, so simply I can't

Tried opening a console, setting %HOME% variable and then starting spyder from the same console, but I0ve experienced the same error.
Actually, looking at the code, looks the error is because HOME variable exists, so I should try to "delete" this variable to see if behavior changes....
