Why do I get a DLL load failure when importing cv2 in Python with OpenCV and Anaconda, and how can I fix it?

Question

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\Intel\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\cv2\__init__.py", line 181, in <module>
    bootstrap()
  File "C:\Users\Intel\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python39\site-packages\cv2\__init__.py", line 153, in bootstrap
    native_module = importlib.import_module("cv2")
  File "C:\Program Files\Python39\lib\importlib\__init__.py", line 127, in import_module
    return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing cv2: The specified module could not be found.

Answer 1

You could try to reinstall OpenCV with pip uninstall opencv-python then pip install opencv-python or install it with Conda

conda install -c conda-forge opencv
