Can you retry with the patch from #211 ?

[FlorinPT]

File "C:\Program Files\Test\main.py", line 185, in procces procces_1 = imagesearch.imagesearch("lib/images/foto.png")

File "C:\Program Files\Test\main.py", line 185, in procces procces_1 = imagesearch.imagesearch("lib/images/foto.png")

I didn't use it in test.py but because of that it gives error

The python_imagesearch package uses mss. so try modifying the mss/windows.py file from #211 and run your example.

ThreadSafety monkey patch: Download windows.txt rename to windows.py, copy to C:\Program Files\Python\Lib\site-packages\mss> and check. windows.txt
