DLL load failed while importing _imaging:

Question

I'm trying to run my Python program and these are the modules I'm importing:

from tkinter import * from functools import partial
import numpy as np import matplotlib matplotlib.use("TkAgg")
from matplotlib.figure import Figure from matplotlib.backends.backend_tkagg import FigureCanvasTkAgg, NavigationToolbar2Tk

I always end up with the following error message:

C:\Users\HP\anaconda3\lib\site-packages\numpy\__init__.py:138: UserWarning: mkl-service package failed to import, therefore Intel(R) MKL initialization ensuring its correct out-of-the box operation under condition when Gnu OpenMP had already been loaded by Python process is not assured. Please install mkl-service package, see http://github.com/IntelPython/mkl-service

**ImportError: DLL load failed while importing _imaging: Belirtilen modül bulunamadı.**

How can I fix this?

Maybe you should: python -m pip install --force-reinstall Pillow. — CristiFati

Simply upgrading the package "Pillow" (using the Anaconde environment) worked for me to resolve this issue.

pip install --upgrade Pillow
