[python-win32] ImportError: No module named win32file

[Elias Fotinis]

First, check if the file 
("<PythonDir>\Lib\site-packages\win32\win32file.pyd") really exists. Then 
check the Python module search path. Put a "print sys.path" before the 
"import win32file" and check whether it contains the 
"...site-packages\win32" dir.

Either pywin32 didn't install properly or some module messes with your 
sys.path.
