i get exception while importing tensorflow

I run following code through in the Python shell 

import tensorflow as tf
hello = tf.constant("Hello")
sess = tf.Session()
print(sess.run(hello))

but I get following exception

Failed to load the native TensorFlow runtime.

See https://www.tensorflow.org/install/install_sources#common_installation_problems

for some common reasons and solutions.  Include the entire stack trace
above this error message when asking for help.

I installed tensorflow using following command:

pip3 install --upgrade tensorflow

I googled about my problem but I'm not able to find any relevant solutions, I am using python 3.6.4 on a Windows 10 64-bit machine.

What is causing this exception? What am I missing?

Your CPU's lack of AVX instruction set can cause this error.

Tensorflow 1.6.0 needs your CPU support AVX instructions to get work.

Release 1.6.0

Breaking Changes

  • Prebuilt binaries are now built against CUDA 9.0 and cuDNN 7.
  • Prebuilt binaries will use AVX instructions. This may break TF on older CPUs.
