Hi, I am getting a "DLL Load failed while importing win32api" error when attempting to utilize a kedro jupyter notebook kernal. I currently have winpy32 301 installed from the kedro install process, is there an version that you all recommend using that may be more stable?

Hi @User I'm not on a windows machine so it's a little hard for me to debug. Here is a stack overflow thread on the same topic and I think it may be worth trying the different answers https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58612306/how-to-fix-importerror-dll-load-failed-while-importing-win32api The other suggestion I have for you is to use the WSL linux subsystem instead

ya.. I just tried 300 and that seems to resolve the kernel specific issue.
