Unsolved reference 'Tk'?

Question

I am trying to learn tkinter and how to make GUIs with it, but PyCharm is giving me an error as "Unresolved reference 'Tk' " My code:

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()

Did you just named your or any file in the current working directory as `tkinter.py` ? — Thingamabobs, Oct 06 '22 at 16:44

It sounds like you have a file in your project called tkinter.py that's shadowing the tkinter module. (The path to the "real" tkinter would be something like Python/Python310/lib/tkinter/__init__.py, whereas the path tkinter.py in the error message indicates a file in your project's root path.)

To fix the problem, rename or move your tkinter.py file.
