[issue21050] Failure to import win32api (from pywin32)

[Brett Cannon]

Brett Cannon added the comment:

For those that don't read German, the exception says "The specified module could not be found".

Anyway, what looks suspicious to me is this line that gets imported by pywintypes:

# extension module loaded from 'C:\\Python34\\lib\\site-packages\\win32\\_win32sysloader.pyd'

That module's name suggests it might be critical. I also wonder what is going on with your sys.path as pywintypes is coming from site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py while win32api is coming from site-packages\\win32\\win32api.pyd (notice how pywintypes is in some lib subidrectory and win32api is not). That suggests to me that something is mucking with sys.path somewhere to make this require the ordering.
