I installed the latest version of Anaconda on my Windows 10. After installing i tried to launch it but it wouldn't launch even after trying several times. I also tried to launch the jupyter notebook and spider shortcut that was created but even that didn't work. So I tried to run it using the terminal and this is the error I recieved:

  • Please take some time to take the [tour] and learn [ask]. Then update your question with a well-formatted [mre]. People have no idea what is causing an error if you don't explain what you where trying to do and what you were aiming for. – Ronald Jul 24 '20 at 17:38

I also encountered this problem after I uninstalled the Microsoft Visual Studio C++ redistributable. It fixed (DLL error) after I installed Visual Studio 2015, 2017, and 2019.

You can find it on The latest supported Visual C++ downloads
