Running python 3.6 on windows 8.
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'win32gui'
I have tried multiple installations of pywin32 but none have worked so far. https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20221/ goes through installation without problems but the issue persuades. Same with pip installing: http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pywin32
In my Python root there is now multiple pywin32/win32 variants in the site-packages folder. pywin32.pth doesn't contain a win32gui but only the following:
# .pth file for the PyWin32 extensions
win32
win32\lib
Pythonwin
I could as a last resort switch to another GUI toolkit but as I'm using some opensource code that would mean I'd have to rewrite lots of code which is why it is a last resort.
Update: changing the import line from:
import win32gui, win32ui, win32con, win32api
To:
from win32 import win32gui, win32ui, win32con, win32api
Pushed the error to:
ImportError: cannot import name 'win32ui'
Solution update:
from win32 import win32gui
import win32ui, win32con, win32api
