Tkinter giving Import Error: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found

Question

I have a 64 bit machine but because of some compatibility issues with other softwares i'm using 32 bit python(all softwares related to my application are 32 bit). When I'm trying to run my application It's giving me following error for tkinter:

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

Can anyone suggest me a solution.

Answer 1

I solved this error (under Python 2.7 32-bit on Windows 10) by removing the _thinker.pyd and _tkinter.lib files from my python_script folder. I later removed the python_script folder itself.
