FileNotFoundError: Could not find module when using jupyter notebook

When I try to use jupyter notebook, I got the following error message:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

But I am sure that the file is right there in the folder. Can anyone help me?

Reverting scipy (from 1.7.3 back to 1.6.3) or changing scipy version to any other one didn't work for me. What did work, however, is setting up an environmental variable CONDA_DLL_SEARCH_MODIFICATION_ENABLE to 1 (as suggested here). This can be a workaround until the devs fix this.

Delete the spicy folder in the environment "\miniconda\envs\env_name\Lib\site-packages\spicy" Reinstall using cell magic in the jupyter notebook

!pip install spicy

It seems to be pretty common when installing scipy. You could try the downgrade, but that did not work for me.

I found that re-installing scipy using:

pip install scipy==1.6.3 --user

worked to install the missing file.

Same problem occured when trying to import sklearn. The version of my scipy is 1.6.3 and i solved the problem by degrading scipy into 1.6.2

Same problem while trying to import tensorflow!

FileNotFoundError: Could not find module 'C:\anaconda3\envs\test\lib\site-packages\scipy.libs\libbanded5x.EHDKC2XVYTQQ5MALRS6XN2CUSS6SRL6P.gfortran-win_amd64.dll' (or one of its dependencies). Try using the full path with constructor syntax.

(the file is there)
