It'd be great to have the error message in English. Setting the locale in your operating system or setting a shell variable should do the trick

I'm seeing basically the same thing in a Windows 11 sandbox with the standard python.org 3.12.4 installed:

I don't know why, but it's not finding msvcp140.dll even though it comes with Java and is added to the system path by default when installing Java. Copying C:\Program Files\Eclipse Adoptium\jdk-22.0.1.8-hotspot\bin\msvcp140.dll to C:\Windows\System32\ does fix it.

This really doesn't make any sense. The msvcp140.dll can be found and loaded using ctypes.util.find_library and ctypes.WinDLL, and then importing jpype will work just fine after that. This almost looks like a python bug, but it could be some weird windows configuration thing.

The "correct" solution to recommend is probably to install the Latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version but it really shouldn't be necessary since it comes with Java and is in the system path already.
