EnvironmentError: [WinError 87] The parameter is incorrect

I attempted to execute:

python -m pip install tensorflow

from a Windows 10 command prompt that was being run as administrator.

I got the following error:

I tried this both from the PyCharm terminal (64-bit version) and from Python 3.7.4 (from the 64-bit build). Using the 64-bit version seemed important according to tensorflow.

The solution for this question gave me the inspiration: Conda-forge spaCy install fails - Error: WinError 87 - the parameter is incorrect

I went to COMODO Internet Security Premium and selected Autocontainment -> Disabled for 15 minutes. Then I re-ran the command

python -m pip install tensorflow

from that Windows 10 command prompt that was being run as administrator.
