I am trying to automate Microsoft Office applications and after some Googling, I came across pypiwin32 and pywin32 to interact with Windows Component Objects. My question is, what's the difference between the two libraries?

I have tried Googling but all the information I found seem to be outdated.

Pypiwin32 is an old and outdated repackaging of pywin32 from its creator to use wheels. It is abandoned for a long time. You should just use pywin32.
