Hi,

Working on an internal system that we’re trying to update (sadly we were still on Python 2.7 ☹ …

One think I noticed is amongst the scripts we have is a dependency on:

pythoncomloader27.dll (which appears at least to have been part of pywin32_system32

This is referenced in some registry files, e.g.

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{80e81c1f-9b39-4a49-9c16-65e7404b809c2}\InprocServer32]
@="pythoncomloader27.dll"  … presumably I need to update this too….
"ThreadingModel"="both"

However when I install the win32 package for Python 3.7; this file seems missing (I just see the pythoncom & wintypes dlls)
any idea on how I can find/build this? (I’m assuming it’s still needed for the com stuff).


Regards,
Mike
