I guess this error occurs when the installer is trying to run the postinstall
script.  This script asks whether any previous comtypes generated files
in the comtypes\gen folder should be removed.  It is recommended (but not
required) to remove these files.

So - you should not worry about this problem.  (Well, I probably should
but I cannot reproduce it).
