Note that confusingly, pywin32 has many modules, but none are named 
`pywin32` - try, say, `import win32api`.

As Steven mentioned, pip can't install via a .exe. You either want to 
run the .exe, or just use `pip install pywin32` - which you said you did 
above, so I suspect you have already installed it correctly, but just 
specified the wrong module to import.

Cheers,
