pywin32 is installed just for me, but python itself is installed for all users.
I have
C:\Users\rdboylan\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python37\site-packages\pythonwin\Pythonwin.exe
but when I try to run it (double-click or command prompt in that directory) I
get
The application can not locate win32ui.pyd (or Python) (126
That file is in the same folder as Pythonwin.exe.
Searching turned up some suggestions this is a 32 vs 64 bit problem; everything
should be 32 bit (though 64 bit OS) but I'm not sure how to check. The system
itself definitely has both 32 and 64 bit pythons installed.

I've always installed ActiveState builds, which include pywin32/win32py
(I think the name has changed over its history). To my knowledge PythonWin
IDE is included as part of pywin32.

I'm guessing you installed Python for single user, given that path. Did
you try running the pythonwin executable. Note that the documentation which
you trimmed actually states "... for PythonWin" -- which could imply that
it is trying to interface with the (expected) pythonwin IDE process --
something you don't have active.
I believe all the tools in .../pywin/tools are meant to be invoked by
PythonWin itself.

Python35\Lib\site-packages\pythonwin\Pythonwin.exe
{Yes, a bit behind -- ActiveState, after all, has to wait for python.org
releases before they can start building and testing for their release --
and 3.6, last I looked, is just the core; 3.5 includes a massive number of
third party packages}
