I just installed QB64. When I tried to run it I get IDE Module error. What do I do?

Well, don't make me have to pull it out of you. Tell me what you are doing! What you have tried. I HOPE you unzipped it...
What OS are you using? What EXACTLY have you done? I'm not able to help if you act like a clam.

I'm sorry. I don't mean to act like a clam. Yes I unzipped it, put it all in a QB64 folder. It all looks good. I click on the QB64.exe and it brings up a smallish black screen - with a border around it. But then it pops up "IDE module error" and that's all I get. I suspect it's because I have no IDE at all, at least I can't locate one. I really appreciate your help.

That window is the Qbasic program. The IDE should pop up after that window goes away.
What OS are you using it on? LINUX needs to be installed differently.
If you are using Windows, what version? What path?
Try unzipping it again if you haven't already.

DON'T try to close that window! If it stays there then QB64 may have a problem. What's the path to the QB64 folder?

The Editor is SUPPOSED to be run IN the QB64 folder!
WHY ELSE would you use it? Use your head!

My my, a little testy arent we? I gather you referred to my copying those needed DLL files. No matter, I suppose I deserved it. You didn't explain why the program errors out but I have found a way around it. If I run the editor as Administrator it doesn't have the error. I'll continue working with Cyperian today. Thanks.

Not testy, it's just common sense.
LOL @ run it as administrator
You can move the DLL files to the System32 folder if you are administrator. Then your QB64 programs will run from any folder too.
If you plan to send anybody your programs the DLL files must be included with the EXE file. Here's a link to a zip of all of the DLL files needed. Just unzip to a download folder to make a program package. Then zip the contents of the folder.

Hi, the error line you are pointing out is the piping SHELL does to temp.tmp, I guess that if you don't run as administrator SHELL can't create temp.tmp which is why it is reported as not found.
You might get around the problem also by adding my editor on the list of programs you trust or something (don't know exactly how it works but you are probably more experienced than I in your operating system).
Perhaps the QB64 IDE will work now also when you run as administrator?
