I recently had a problem when I tried win32 on a newly-installed Python 
3.8 and I couldn't import win32clipboard. The solution in that case was 
to copy pywintypes38.dll and pythoncom38.dll from 
site-packages/pywin32_system32 into site-packages/win32. (Note: those 
names had "38" for Python 3.8.)
