Ive updated my Python version from 3.5.4 to 3.6.6 (in Anaconda 3) and now the line
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
causes the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

from ._ufuncs import *
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
Im on Windows 7, 64-bit; previously the line worked fine, and other packages (Pandas, Numpy etc) still work, so it doesn't appear to be a PATH issue as some have suggested.
Ive seen numerous similar questions but all solutions have so far failed. E.g.
Does anyone have any further suggestions (specific to Anaconda etc)?

I solved it, and (in my case) the problem was scipy, not sklearn. What i did was uninstall scipy with conda: conda remove --force scipy, and then install it with pip: pip install scipy. That worked for me.
