PyHook on python 3.5

Question

I am trying to write a basic keylogging program on python. I need to install the pywin32 and pyhook modules. I have managed to get pywin32 installed, but cannot seem to pyhook to work. I have read its possible to get it to work on later versions of python, but cannot seem to figure it out. I have tried both .exe and .whl installs. Using whl in cmd gives error that the wheel is not supported. Does anyone have a solution to install pyhook on python 3.5. Thanks

Answer 1

This is how I did it...

1. Download the py hook module that matches your version of python from here . Make sure that if you have python 32 bit you download the 32 bit module (even if you have windows 64x) and vice versa .

2. Open your command prompt and navigate to the folder where you downloaded the module

3. Type "pip install " and then the name of the file.

   Ex: "pip install pyHook-1.5.1-cp27-none-win32.whl"

Note : you need pip

Answer 2

If your pip install have not success. Try -> when you download a pyHook-1.5.1-cp27-none-win32.whl file from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pyhook After that move file to Programs\\Python\\Python35-32\\Scripts path and then pip install pyHook-1.5.1-cp27-none-win32.whl I hope my answer is useful for you.
