there are some problems with the Skype4Py-package itselve - solving:

  1. download the package from the pypi-website as zip.
  2. unzip somewhere and change the following files:

    1. setup.py: (line 111) # in front of the line or (, ) around the string
    2. README.rst: (line 203) remove the " “S” " (if you get a UnicodeDecodeError)
  3. install with: pip install "C:\path\to\unzipped\and\edited\dir"
