Ran pywin32-218.win32-py2.7.exe in the Python 32-bit folder which
generated the errors (shown in the pywin32 installer window):

     lost sys.stderr
No mention of successful installation in installer window.

I believe this is caused by having UAC disabled on the machine - and I've never found why this happens. Running "python pywin32_postinstall.py -install" manually should complete the installation.

HTH,

The installers will find the correct installation from the Windows
registry, and will install in the correct place, side by side, system
wide.  I have installations varying from Python 2,3 to Python 3.3-64 on
my laptop.

Since installing Python 3.3, with its new Python loader, I have almost
stopped using virtualenv, since I can easily pick my Python version from
the command line:
C:> py -3.2-32 myprog.py
(But, of course, that is not the only reason for using virtualenv.)

    Hi! This is my first question on the list and not sure if this
    question has been asked as I can't find searchable archives.
    When developing 32-bit and 64-bit applications in respective
    virtualenv's, do pywin32-32 and pywin32-64 have to be installed in
    the respective virtualenv's?  Or, are the two pywin32's installed
    system-wide?
