it's pip install pypiwin32 but incase that doesn't work remember that pywin32 302 (not pypiwin32, which looks like a mistake from 2018) was uploaded 20 hours ago, and states in the change log:

Support for Python 10, dropped support for Python 3.5 (3.5 security support ended 13 Sep 2020)

Demo (using PyLauncher to update my 3.10 install):

C:\>py -3.10 -m pip install pywin32
