Try to run `C:\Python34\python.exe C:\Python34\Scripts\pywin32_postinstall.py -install` manually from an elevated command prompt. Much better when ran as an administrator: C:\Python\Projects\test>C:\Python34\python.exe C:\Python34\Scripts\pywin32_postinstall.py -install Copied pythoncom34.dll to C:\Windows\system32\pythoncom34.dll Copied pywintypes34.dll to C:\Windows\system32\pywintypes34.dll Registered: Python.Interpreter Registered: Python.Dictionary Registered: Python -> Software\Python\PythonCore\3.4\Help[None]=None -> Software\Python\PythonCore\3.4\Help\Pythonwin Reference[None]='C:\\Python34\\Lib\\site-packages\\PyWin32.chm' Pythonwin has been registered in context menu Shortcut for Pythonwin created Shortcut to documentation created The pywin32 extensions were successfully installed. I wonder why is a difference between 2.7 and 3.4 in this?
