thanks for great portable python in windows!
for easier distribution, i prefer min. package - WinPython-64bit-3.5.1.3Zero.exe.
so i can copy all my script with this in a folder, not too big, it's ~70M after unpacking

normally i need automation programes like office, inventor...which use com automation, so need pywin32 package, but when i install from WinPython Command Prompt.exe, found error

Collecting pywin32
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pywin32 (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for pywin32

could you please help this? thanks!

also comments that there is many .exe file in zero version, but only some of them can run actually, then why not clean up...thanks!

well:

  • Zero version goal was to be same size or smaller than Python default installer, and pywin32 is really (too) big,
  • I added Pythonnet in the Zero, as I hoped it could be the an alternative for some cases,
  • I may do a "mini" version If I'm proved wrong, but so far "intermediate" size WinPython experience are not popular.

Fact is Zero version is currently 6 Mo smaller than official installer.... let see if a "mini" is more popular then a Zero.

Thanks a lot! better that min version is also flexiable, i mean i can choose package by pip by myself, and my question about install pywin32 into zero version, any suggestions?

min = zero version + pywin32

Your request is equivalent to ask to re-badge "mini" as "zero", isn't it ?
