Error importing numpy after pip install intel-numpy

[Noyes__Chris]

On Windows 10, I installed 64-bit Python 3.6.8 from python.org, then installed numpy with "pip install -U intel-numpy".

Then when importing numpy I get the below error. Please advise on the fix.

Thanks!

>> python -c "import numpy"

ImportError:
Importing the multiarray numpy extension module failed.  Most
likely you are trying to import a failed build of numpy.
If you're working with a numpy git repo, try `git clean -xdf` (removes all
files not under version control).  Otherwise reinstall numpy.

Original error was: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

This is a common problem if you install versions with intermixed pip and numpy dependencies in an environment.  Can you post your conda list and conda info output for us to look at?

[Noyes__Chris]

I'm not using Anaconda. This is a clean install of python from the python.org binaries, and intel-numpy is the first and only package installed.

[DavidLiu]

Pip has not collected one of the dependencies right then.  You'll need to remove the packages from /site-packages/numpy/ and try to reinstall NumPy.  Multiarray is a common failure in NumPy if the installation fails to install correctly.
