    x64 Win7 1)Install TC12.3 2) Install Python 3.6.x (x64) to folder where we have TC Python: C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestComplete 12\Bin\Extensions\Python\Python36 to get it registered, to get pip and full Python I download and install Python (x64), but can see in cmd that i have x86 Python (!??!!?) So, i can install only x86 libs. 3) donwload x86 lib and install via pip: pywin32-221-cp36-cp36m-win32.whl Aftre this i use: import sys sys.path.insert(0, r'C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestComplete 12\Bin\Extensions\Python\Python36\Lib\site-packages') sys.path.insert(0, r'C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestComplete 12\Bin\Extensions\Python\Python36\Lib\site-packages\win32') sys.path.insert(0, r'C:\Program Files (x86)\SmartBear\TestComplete 12\Bin\Extensions\Python\Python36\Lib\site-packages\win32\lib') import win32com.client

        Please, suggest: if i have test complete x86 (inside Python is also x86) , but win7 x64 Should i install full Python x86? What place is better to install: usual (c:) or to testcomplet/ext/bin/python?
