pip install pywin32 didn't work for me but pypiwin32 did.
Complete beginner in Python so excuse me for any terminology errors and such.
I installed pywin32 using pip install pywin32 as well as pypiwin32 in the same way, both appear in the pip list on the command prompt. However, when I try to import win32com.client (”import win32com.client as client”) in PyCharm, it gives me the following error: ”ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ’win32com’”.
Tried to Google for this error, but it seems everyone is saying that I don’t have pywin32 or pypiwin32 installed, which according to the pip list I do.
Does anyone have an idea of how I could fix this error? I’m on Windows 10 if that matters. Thanks in advance!
No module named 'win32com'

You are using pip version 9.0.3, however version 10.0.1 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.
Check sys.path to make sure the directory where the module is installed is in there, otherwise you have to add it (google PYTHONPATH windows for some help with that.)
