We were in the process to update to python 3.7 in our internal build/test machines, and one of our windows server 2008 started to get the following error:

We are installing the latest psutil version psutil-5.6.7-cp37-cp37m-win_amd64.whl
It also looks very similar as #1394
Is this a bug or something we can work around?

Dupe of #1662.
