except COMError, err: SyntaxError: invalid syntax about pykinect2

Did you check #37?
I got everything to work with 64-bit Anaconda v4.12.0 in a conda virtual environment with Python 3.6.13.
I just did all the instructions on the main github page, with these fixes:

• pip install comtypes==1.1.4
• after pip installing pykinect2, replace the .py files in the pykinect2 folder in Anaconda with the matching .py files from the github

I believe this is everything you need to do to get this code running on a modern Anaconda install.

@Yudh0B I solved installing a less recent version of the Anaconda Environment and Python.
If I am not wrong, I solved it with Python 3.7 and Anaconda 1.7.2

But anyway, try to downgrade the version until it works, I assume there is a problem in some library versions.
The other option is open and run the single code and solve the issues. I found some syntax errors in some modules because written in Python 2. I gave up at a certain point, and I picked the above solution.

Hope it could help.
