Can you provide a bit more detail, e.g. what error are you seeing?

[B]

i'm using the command pip install pypiwin32
but the installation process stops and I have this error: syntaxtError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'

This package doesn't yet have a wheel for Python 3.6, so it falls back on the source distribution, and the setup.py file doesn't run under Python 3.

You can either wait for the maintainer to upload the new wheel to PyPI, or take one of the recently built installers from https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20220/

Anyway this is not a Python issue but pywin32's.
