title: EOFError in python win32com
body: <p>I am running Sympathy for Data, a program based on python. It worked well until today. I got error message like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>File "..\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py", line 11, in &lt;module&gt;
  import gencache
  File &gt;"..\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\gencache.py", line 662, in &lt;module&gt;
  _ _init_ _()
  File &gt;"..\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\gencache.py", line 56, in _ _init_ _
  _LoadDicts()
  File "..\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32com\client\gencache.py", line 109, in _LoadDicts
  version = p.load()
  EOFError
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I find an answer <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34065093/eoferror-randomly-appeared-while-using-pyttsx-and-my-code-now-constantly-throws">here</a> which basically had the same issue, but the solution doesn't work for me. All the solutions that I've found online provide the same solution, remove the contents under _gen_py_ folder.</p>
  
  <p>I don't have to run any program with Sympathy for data. I got this error message even if I open the iPython shipped with Sympathy for data.</p>
  
  <p>I am really hopeless in this case, could someone help me how to solve it?</p>
