Hello
The pywin32 Python library requires some additional configuration after installation. Please try following the steps as noted in this Community post:
Note that you may be looking for different DLL names as the Python will have been upgraded in newer versions of FME (eg. pythoncom313.dll, pywintypes313.dll in FME 2025). In addition, the paths to insert using sys.path.insert() would likely different as well.
