2020-03-04 Thread Boylan, Ross
After downloading and installing pywin32-227.win-amd64-py3.8.exe I can access the libraries, but there don't seem to be any links from the start menu to any of the tools or documentation. The installation log just shows a lot of files being copied to C:\Program Files\Python38\Lib\site-packages,

The same problem occurs from another Win 7 machine so it is not-machine specific, though it might be Win 7 specific. The C++ test program works fine from Win Server 2012 R2, run against the same share. From: Boylan, Ross Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2018

The documentation I've found, including Mark's book, advises that I should register COM servers with --debug and use the Trace Collector Debugging Tool on the PythonWin Tools Menu. I can run IDLE, but it has no Tools menu or anything that looks relevant. So I think something else is intended.
