TaskSchedulerSvc
In this video, we will create a Windows Service written in Python. We will see one way to correctly install the required pywin32 module that works for Python 3.5, and how to successfully run the postinstall script. We will then run our scheduled task as a Windows Service. - Finding the correct installer wheel for Python 3.5 - Successfully running the post install script, copying DLLs to \WINDOWS\system32 - Running the scheduled task as a Windows Service
