Answer 1

This is a bug in the library itself, probably they used a different python implementation for creating this.

What they are trying to import is the site-packages\win32\win32api.pyd file, but the win32 folder is not in the path that python searches in, but site-packages is.

Try to replace the import win32api (inside win32com\__init__.py) to from win32 import win32api
