Having trouble installing pyWin32 on my windows 10 operating system based computer

I tried installing the package in windows command prompt

Why will it not install? I thought I followed the correct procedures

Just use bounding quotes for the full path of .whl file.

pip install "C:\...full path with spaces\pywin32-...-win_amd64 (1).whl"

Of course make sure pip install wheels was run first.

Alternative way is using easy_install (not necessary to download the installer manually):

easy_install.exe https://github.com/jmdaweb/TWBlue_deps_windows/raw/master/x64/pywin32-220.win-amd64-py2.7.exe

But the second way may cause problems with py2exe if you have plans to use it. Maybe pip install pypiwin32 is OK for you (it will install pyWin32 build 219, should work just fine for most cases).
