in thread Tk::Canvas not working

It seems like my attempt to uninstall Tk::Canvas had uninstalled all of Tk.

Yes - I see now that Tk::Canvas is part of Tk. (I had assumed it was a separate distribution, but it's not.)

You firstly need to find out how to deal with this DOS attack that Norton AV has launched. (I don't know how best to do that, but I would expect there is some way of telling the AV program to permit these "infected" files to be installed and executed.)
Then, re-running:
cpanm https://github.com/StrawberryPerl/Perl-Dist-Strawberry/releases/ +download/patched_cpan_modules/Tk-804.036_001.tar.gz
should be all that's needed.

Cheers,
Rob

    Thanks for the suggestions and encouragement. Looks like I have some research to do. Norton (the company) no longer offers help with Windows 7 problems. This problem is likely to happen to everyone using NAV and Tk. I hope our dialog helps other to recognize it when it does.
