PyInstaller not working because of Win32 module

Today I installed PyInstaller using pip install pyinstaller, and the first time I try to use it I get an error.

This is the end of the Traceback:

    import pywintypes
  File "c:\users\david\appdata\local\programs\python\python35\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py", line 124, in <module>
    __import_pywin32_system_module__("pywintypes", globals())
  File "c:\users\david\appdata\local\programs\python\python35\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\pywintypes.py", line 64, in __import_pywin32_system_module__
    import _win32sysloader
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

In win32 folder there is a file _win32sysloader.pyd and in win32/lib the file pywintypes.py.

I tried to add __init__.py file to wind32/lib containing from win32 import _win32sysloader, but it's not help.
