import win32api error in Python 2.6

When running python26 under windows OS (64bits)..... I have got errors like:

import win32api" error in Python 2.6: pywintypes26.dll

or

pythoncom26.dll missing
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

I have done the msi installation for python26 all dlls can be found under C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\pywin32_system32

Solution

  • After I copy pywintypes26.dll and pythoncom26.dll from C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\pywin32_system32 to C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\win32 -> Solve the problem!
