python load windows COM interface

Question

I registered a C# COM interface dll Using "c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\RegAsm.exe" /codebase StepsToEveConverter.dll

RegAsm : warning RA0000 : Registering an unsigned assembly with /codebase can cause your assembly to interfere with other applications that may be i
talled on the same computer. The /codebase switch is intended to be used only with signed assemblies. Please give your assembly a strong name and re
egister it.

I have installed python When I type python.exe at command prompt it shows:

Python 3.5.0 (v3.5.0:374f501f4567, Sep 13 2015, 02:16:59) [MSC v.1900 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license()" for more information.

The pyhon paths in my Eclipse tool

To test COM functionality i used

w=win32com.client.Dispatch("Word.Application")
w.Visible=1

Who opens Word as expected

But when i try to use my COM dll StepsToEveConverter.dll i get

from comtypes.client import CreateObject
eveConverter = CreateObject("StepsToEveConverter");

Gives error:

...
        _ole32.CoCreateInstance(byref(clsid), punkouter, clsctx, byref(iid), byref(p))
      File "_ctypes/callproc.c", line 945, in GetResult
    WindowsError: [Error -2147221164] Class not registered

In regedit.exe HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT i have the entry

After i installed 32 bit version of Anaconda it works with this

import comtypes
import comtypes.client
eveConverter = comtypes.client.CreateObject("StepsToEveConverter");
