While I haven’t worked on exactly what you are working on:
I’d first verify suggest that the application that installs this class needs to
be installed on the PC you are trying to create the automation from, because
“Class not Registered” isn’t a python error, and it talks more directly to the
fact that the appropriate class from the software you are trying to automate
isn’t on the computer you are running python from: so either you have the wrong
CLSID or are doing something else wrong (missing software???).
Classes are listed in the registry here:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\clsid\{6bff4732-81ec-4ffb-ae67-b6c1bc29631f}
… and your CLSID would need to exist (as installed from whatever software you
are trying to automate) prior to python being able to automate it.
Here is an example that should work on your system…
ms_dict = win32com.client.Dispatch('Scripting.Dictionary')
… because the scripting dictionary object class is installed in just about
every Windows OS since pre-WindowsXP
I hope this helps. Enjoy your day.

Subject: [python-win32] Setting Focus Assist Mode via COM
Hi,
could someone help me out with first steps for how to set Focus Assist via COM,
which https://gist.github.com/riverar/085d98ffb1343e92225a10817109b2e3
demonstrates for a C++ code base? Something like
win32com.client.Dispatch('{6bff4732-81ec-4ffb-ae67-b6c1bc29631f}',
clsctx=pythoncom.CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER)
fails with "pywintypes.com_error: (-2147221164, 'Class not registered', None,
None)"
Thank you and best regards!
