How can I append a new path to python?

Since I updated to python 3.9.1 I have problems to load some functions I created and stored in a different path. Previously, I was working with python 3.6.8 and the function import worked. The code I use for importing is the following:

sys.path.append("[absolute path to folder]") # add to python path
from [python file name without .py] import [function name in file]

If I execute the previous lines one by one, I get following error:

[WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

The full message is:

[WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Digging a bin on the function I've discovered that the error is an import error from the seaborn module, because if I import it I get:

import seaborn as sns 
[WinError 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

Any clues of what is happening?

it's possible the libraries you're attempting to use are not yet compatible with your new python version, check the documentations for seaborn and matplotlib to find out what the latest python version they are made for is. Generally it's best to stay a couple of minor versions behind the latest python release to give third party libraries some leeway to catch up
