Importerror dll load failed while importing error не найден указанный модуль

if( aicp_can_see_ads() ) {

}

This post explains How To Fix Python Error – “ImportError: DLL load failed”.

We will see Generalized and more specific version of the error.

if( aicp_can_see_ads() ) {

}

Error 
ImportError: DLL load failed:

Reasons & Fixes :

Sometimes it happens if there are multiple versions of Python installed. Uninstall the not reuqired version or use Python Virtual Environment (virtualenv) to separate Multiple Python versions.

Try reinstalling Python – You can try native Python or Anaconda Python.

Check if you have mixed up 64-Bit32-Bit version updates.

Try below –

pip install pyqt5-tools

This issue also happens due to Anaconda installation issue . Check if you have set up the Anaconda path to your System Environment PATH.

if( aicp_can_see_ads() ) {

}

Fix – “ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.”

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

Reasons and Fix – DLL failures are very common when Python components are installed separately or various installation channels are mixed up.

Add the DLL Location to the Environment PATH variable. Sometimes some update might screw up the environment variable details.

Run the below command if using PyQt5 .
```
pip install pyqt5-tools
```

if( aicp_can_see_ads() ) {

}

Instead of installing the native Python and the packages , try out the Anaconda Python. Anaconda includes most of the major packages used in Python projects and are configured correctly. If it is related to Tensorflow set-up, Ananconda takes care of all necessary packages including the GPU and CUDA.
```
conda install -c anaconda tensorflow-gpu
```
It’s for Tensorflow 2.1 and Python 3.7. DLL failures are common when components are installed separately or through another channel than Anaconda.

Sometimes it happens if there are multiple versions of Python installed. Uninstall the not required version or use Python Virtual Environment (virtualenv) to separate Multiple Python versions.

Hope you found this post useful.

Solved

If you are working in a miniconda on conda environment. You could just install pywin32 using conda instead of pip.

This solved my problem:

conda install pywin32

For my case, install and reinstall pywin32 doesn’t help. After copied the two files from [installation directory of Anaconda]Libsite-packagespywin32_system32 to C:WindowsSystem32, it works.

My environment is python 3.8 in miniconda. The two files are pythoncom38.dll and pywintypes38.dll.

For me, it worked by downgrading my pywin32 from version 227 to version 224. Just type the following command on any shell in administrator mode:

ref: https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/issues/1431

edit: User @JoyfulPanda gave a warning:

Running this script with admin rights will also copy pythoncom37.dll, pywintypes37.dll (corresponding to the pywin32 version), into C:WINDOWSsystem32, which effectively overwrites the corresponding DLL versions from Anaconda already there. This later causes problem when openning (on Windows) «Start Menu > Anaconda3 (64-bit) > Anaconda Prompt (a_virtual_env_name)». At least Anaconda 2019.07 has pywin32 223 installed by default. Pywin32 224 may work, but 225-228 causes problem for Anaconda (2019.07)

This happens when Libsite-packagespywin32_system32 is not in the list of directories to search for DLL (PATH environment variable).

pywin32 (or one of its dependencies) adds this path at runtime to the PATH variable. If this is failing, or another component is overriding the PATH after it’s been set by pywin32, you will get the given error (ImportError: DLL load failed while importing win32api).

You can try to extend the PATH variable in the shell before starting Python.

On Windows:

set PATH=c:...Libsite-packagespywin32_system32;%PATH%

If that doesn’t work, then the PATH maybe overridden within the Python program at runtime. Add the following line to your program just before pywin32 is used to verify its value:

import os
print(os.environ["PATH"])

As a last resort, you can extend the PATH variable before pywin32 is loaded:

Windows:

os.environ["PATH"] = r"c:...pywin32_system32;" + os.environ["PATH"]

Unix like:

os.environ["PATH"] = r"/.../pywin32_system32:" + os.environ["PATH"]

answered Feb 11, 2022 at 8:35

You should go into the folder {python folder path}/Lib/site-packages/pywin32_system32 and copy pythoncomXX.dll and pywintypesXX.dll to the folder C:/Windows/System32.

If you are using a virtual environment, then {python folder path} is the python folder used by the virtual environment, otherwise it is the folder where the global python is located. For example, I use conda to create a virtual environment called Frameless-Window, and install the package pywin32 in this virtual environment, then the {python folder path} on my computer should be D:/Anaconda/envs/Frameless-Window.

You should be very careful when copying the dll to the System32 folder. if there are dlls with the same name in the folder and pywin32 in your other virtual environment may use these two dlls, replacing the original dlls may cause this virtual environment had the same ImportError problem. After testing, I found that the dlls of pywin32 of version 227, 228 and 300 can be replaced with each other, and the dlls of pywin32 of versions 301, 302, 303 and 304 can also be replaced with each other, but if the dll of version 300 is replaced with the dll of version 301, it will raise ImportError.

answered Dec 21, 2022 at 7:45

Maybe a bit late but it could help:

What happens is that you have two versions of pywin32 installed (One in the local enviroment and the other one in the main python installation)

To solve that uninstall both versions with:

conda uninstall pywin32
pip uninstall pywin32

And inside your virtual conda enviroment also execute:

conda uninstall pywin32
or 
pip uninstall pywin32

finally in your virtual enviroment / conda enviroment install with pip install pywin32 or conda.

The answers telling that it works with x version is because the version they install are compatible with the pywin32 dlls they have in system32.

I created a project yesterday evening with 3.8.2 and ran into this problem. Error can be found below.
This morning I did a new venv with 3.7.6, exact same setup besides that, and there was no issue.

One remark… When installing the package on python38 (the -binary), it seems to compile it… But not on python37…

How to Fix Python ImportError: Dll Load Failed Error

By Linda | Follow |
Last Updated December 06, 2022

If you use Python, you may have ever received error «ImportError: Dll Load Failed: The specified module could not be found.» In this post, MiniTool Partition Wizard shows you how to solve this error through 2 methods.

Module Not Found Error Python

Python is a widely used interpreted, high-level and general-purpose programming language. As a successor to the ABC language, it replaces the Unix shell and C language for system management, and is responsible for the interaction with the Amoeba operating system and exception handling.

The Python interpreter itself can run on almost all operating systems. Many users may use it on a Windows computer. But some users report that they have encountered module not found error Python. The error usually gives you the following message: ImportError: Dll Load Failed: The specified module could not be found.

In most cases, the «ImportError: Dll Load Failed: The specified module could not be found» error will occur when you import Python libraries including TensorFlow, Numpy, Keras, Pandas, PySide2, etc. Sometimes, when you execute programs related to these libraries, the error may also occur.

How to Fix the Python ImportError: Dll Load Failed Error

What to do if you get error message «ImportError: Dll Load Failed: The specified module could not be found»? You can try the following methods.

Fix 1. Reinstall Library

In most cases, the error occurs when you import a library. The cause of the error may be incorrect/incomplete installation or incompatibility of the library. In this case, you can try reinstalling the library to see whether the problem can be solved. Please refer to the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the library that causes the error «ImportError: Dll Load Failed: The specified module could not be found.» Usually, you can find the culprit in the output lines just above the error.

Step 2: You can use the following commands to uninstall and install a library (numpy is the name of a Python library).

pip uninstall numpy
pip install numpy

Sometimes, the library may be outdated and you need to install the latest version. In this case, you should uninstall the library first, then update the pip, and finally install the library again.

Besides, if the error occurs, because the module is too new, you can solve the problem by installing the module with a specified version.

Fix 2. Configure Environment Variables

If the above method can’t solve the problem, you should check whether the environment variables are set correctly. Sometimes, the environment variables may change without reasons. In this case, you should configure the environment variables again. Please refer to the following steps:

Step 1: Identify which Python distribution you are using (e.g. Anaconda).

Step 2: Right-click on My Computer/This PC icon and choose Properties. Click Advanced system settings > Environment Variables. Click Path variable under User variables box or System variables box. Click the corresponding Edit button.

Note: If you choose Path under the user variables box, it means these variables are only applied for current user account. If you choose Path under the system variables box, it means that these variables are applied for all user accounts.

Step 3: A new window will pop up. Then, click New button to add the following 3 variables:

X:ProgramDataAnaconda3
X:ProgramDataAnaconda3Scripts
X:ProgramDataAnaconda3Librarybin

Note: You should change the path according to your condition.

Then, you should check whether the problem is solved.

importerror: dll load failed: The specified module could not be found error occurs because of the incompatibilities of Microsoft Visual C++ (Visual Studio) versions. The best way to fix this error (importerror: dll load failed) is to reinstall/ install the Microsoft Visual C++ distribution. Apart from this, sometimes manually adding the dll files also fix this error. Let’s explore these methods one by one.

Here we are adding a few methods to fix the error (importerror: dll load failed ). Please apply them one by one.

Method 1: reinstall the Microsoft Visual c++

Here is the link for downloading Microsoft Visual c++. It will come as a group of dll files. You may try different distribution versions between ( Visual Studio 2015, 2017, and 2019 ). In most of cases, this step will fix the error (importerror: dll load failed)

importerror dll load failed

Method 2: Manually adding required dlls –

In the previous step, We have reinstalled the Microsoft Visual c++ completely. But we can also fix the above error if we only replace the required DLLs. Please follow the below steps for this.

Download the msvcp71.dll file.
Save the file at the C:WindowsSystem32 location.
In the case of 64-bit OS, Please save the same file in the C:WindowsSysWOW64 location.

You may also try the msvcr71.dll file in the place of the above DLL file.

Method 3: Reinstalling the Python package (blocker) with Python –

We are getting this error, because of some python packages with underline incompatible libraries. Hence we replace the existing python with the latest or compatible one. Then reinstall the libraries on top of it. To install libraries use the pip3 or pip command depending upon the versions of python.

If your python version is 3. xx then use the pip3 otherwise use pip for python 2.xx.

For example, I want to install the “X” library then I will use the below command.

pip3 install X

Conclusion –

I hope the above step will fix the error for you. But in case any of the above steps are not working, please let us know. You may comment on the details of this error in the comment box. We will help you in resolving them.
