Pypiwin32 is a repackaging of pywin32 to use sane packaging tools (namely wheels). Its repackaged by the BDFL of the Twisted project. If you use pip, or virtualenvs (and you should be using pip and virtualenvs, if you are not, start), use pypiwin32.

Hello! When looking at an upgrade of pyinstaller, I came across this sentence: ForWindows, PyWin32 or the more recent pypiwin32, is a prerequisite What is the difference between these two? I find pypiwin at https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pypiwin32 where I find build 219 dating around New year 2015 giving http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/ as the home page of the project, where I find https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20219/ from spring 2014. What should I use?
