If wheel is not installed the following in core.py silently fails, the DLL load fails. Wheel solves the issue:

    libname = 'libmgrs'
    try:
        import wheel.pep425tags
        name = wheel.pep425tags.get_abbr_impl() + \
               wheel.pep425tags.get_impl_ver() + \
               '-' + wheel.pep425tags.get_platform()
        return libname + '.' + name + '.pyd'
    except ImportError:
        return libname + '.pyd'

indeed, that could be an issue. Will fix in next release.

Please try 1.3.7 and reopen if this is still an issue.
