I am getting error when using pyttsx3.2.6 library

Question

I am new to python, I am trying to use python offline text to speech library pyttsx3. While i am running following script

import pyttsx3
engine = pyttsx3.init()
engine.say("I am talking now ");
engine.setProperty('rate',100)  
engine.runAndWait();

I am getting following error:

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "C:\Users\care\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\site-packages\pyttsx3\__init__.py", line 44, in init
    eng = _activeEngines[driverName]
    File "C:\Users\care\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\lib\weakref.py", line 131, in __getitem__
    o = self.data[key]()
    KeyError

   During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Its just solved my problem by restarting python shell and placing pythoncom35.dll and pywintypes35.dll from C:\Users\care\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\Lib\site-packages\pypiwin32 to C:\Users\care\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35-32\Lib\site-packages\win32
