Changelog

Sourced from pywin32's changelog.

Build 311, released 2025/07/14

  • Fix use-after-free in CertDeleteCertificateFromStore (mhammond#2637)
  • Better support for COM identifiers with non-ascii characters (mhammond#2632)
  • pywin32's own warnings will now refer to the caller, rather than to the internal source of warning itself (mhammond#2594, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • Fixed a regression that broke special __dunder__ methods with CoClass. (mhammond#1870, mhammond#2493, [@​Avasam][Avasam], [@​geppi][geppi])
  • Fixed TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable NoneType object when registering an axscript client ScriptItem (mhammond#2513, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • Fixed a memory leak when SafeArrays are used as out parameters ([@​the-snork][the-snork])
  • Fixed dispatch handling for properties ([@​the-snork][the-snork])
  • Resolved a handful of deprecation warnings (mhammond#2567, mhammond#2576, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • The following classes now produce a valid eval string representation when calling repr: (mhammond#2573, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
    • pywin.tools.browser.HLIPythonObject
    • win32com.server.exception.COMException
    • win32comext.axscript.client.error.AXScriptException
    • win32comext.axscript.client.pyscript.NamedScriptAttribute
  • Added initial DECIMAL/VT_DECIMAL support (mhammond#1501, [@​gesslerpd][gesslerpd])

Build 310, released 2025/03/16

  • Fixed a regression where win32com.client.DispatchWithEvents and win32com.client.WithEvents would throw a TypeError on the second call (mhammond#2491, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • Fixed regression causing win32com.shell.shell to be missing a number of IIDs. (mhammond#2487, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • As part of the above, Windows 7 is now minimum supported.

Build 309, released 2025/03/09

pywin32

  • Fixed Access Violation crashes in 3.12 by moving PyWInObject_Free* methods so GIL is acquired (mhammond#2467, [@​Mscht][Mscht])
  • Added support for relative path for pywin32_postinstall's -destination argument (mhammond#2454, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • The postinstall script is now available as a console script. You can invoke it in one of two new methods: (mhammond#2408, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
    1. python -m pywin32_postinstall -install (recommended)
    2. pywin32_postinstall -install (shorter but you don't have control over which python environment is used)
  • Changed the implementation of 'com_record' to a subclassable Python type (mhammond#2437, mhammond#2361, [@​geppi][geppi])
  • Removed param hIcon from win32comext.shell.ShellExecuteEx. It was unusable since Windows Vista (mhammond#2423, [@​Avasam][Avasam])

  • Fix for Python 3.12 interpreter crashes when accessing a COM Record field (mhammond#2415, [@​geppi][geppi])
  • Pythonwin: Bumped Scintilla from 1.77 to 4.4.6. The full changelog can be found here: https://www.scintilla.org/ScintillaHistory.html
  • Fixed Pythonwin's editor failing due to invalid regex import (mhammond#2419, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • Last error wrongly set by some modules (mhammond#2302, [@​CristiFati][CristiFati])
  • Dropped support for Python 3.7 (mhammond#2207, [@​Avasam][Avasam])
  • Implement the creation of SAFEARRAY(VT_RECORD) from a sequence of COM Records (mhammond#2317, [@​geppi][geppi])

  • Fix memory leak converting to PyObject from some SAFEARRAY elements (mhammond#2316)
  • Fix bug where makepy support was unnecessarily generated (mhammond#2354, mhammond#2353, [@​geppi][geppi])
