I am not sure what else I can do. Any help would be appreciated.

@hbldh I’ve followed the sugestion of @dlech and it worked fine, using 3.6 instead of 3.7. I am closing the issue.

@gmussi Did you get this to work? May 4, the version 2.4 of pythonnet was released, and it has Python 3.7 wheels so try to install that instead.
