What is pywin32 ?
I mean what is its use ?

It is a set of Python modules that gives access to the Windows API, including COM functions. Using it you can create native Windows GUIs from Python or, more usefully, integrate with Windows Operating System features and other Windows programs like Powerpoint or Outlook.

It's pretty much essential if you want to interact with Windows at the OS level. (Although ctypes can also be used nowadays with a little bit extra effort)

pywin also includes the PythonWin IDE - a Windows specific tool similar to IDLE (but much better).

More details on the pywin web site. Also the author has an O'Reilly book (Python Programming on Win32) which covers many pywin features.

HTH,
