So today I tried to install pywin32 on my new Python 3.6.0 and got
the following error:<br>
<br>
---------------------------<br>
Cannot install<br>
---------------------------<br>
Python version 3.6-32 required, which was not found in the registry.<br>
---------------------------<br>
OK <br>
---------------------------<br>
<br>
Seems like pywin32, although built for 3.6, doesn't understand or
conform to the PEP 514? So the installer doesn't work? I suspect
maybe the code would still work, if it would install. I also noted
that pip cannot find a compatible pywin32, and PyPI only reports
compatibility through Python 3.3.<br>
<br>
1. Where should this be reported? SourceForge?<br>
2. Anyone know a workaround?<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
