ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application. But the DLL's are there

Question

I have a situation very much like the one at ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application, but the answer there isn\'t working for me.

My Python

Answer 1

I experienced the same problem while trying to write a code concerning Speech_to_Text.

The solution was very simple. Uninstall the previous pywin32 using the pip method

pip uninstall pywin32

The above will remove the existing one which is by default for 32 bit computers. And install it again using

pip install pywin32

This will install the one for the 64 bit computer which you are using.
