How To Install PyBluez On Windows 8.1?

Question

I'm trying to use bluetooth with python, and the best module I've seen was pybluez. Right then, I tryied installing it by running pip install pybluez. The package was located and downloaded, but it raised an error when running python setup.py egg_info.

I then saw this, where it's said that the only version of windows that PyBluez can be run on is Windows XP.

So then I ask:

• Is there a solution to the traceback ?
• Is there a way to run in on windows 8.1 ?
• Do you recommend another module for bluetooth managing? (Either builtin or third party)

For Reference

Command And Output:

C:\Users\Admin\> pip install pybluez
Collecting pybluez

Windows 8.1 With Python 2.7.10

NOTE: If it's easier to do this with python 3, I'm disposed to do so!
