I'm new to Python and am using Anaconda on Windows 10 to learn how to implement machine learning. Running this code on Spyder:
import sklearn as skl
Originally got me this:
Traceback (most recent call last):

from . import _iterative
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
I then went to the command line and did
pip uninstall scipy
pip install scipy
pip uninstall scikit-learn
pip install scikit-learn
and got no errors when doing so, with scipy 1.3.1 (along with numpy 1.17.0) and scikit-learn 0.21.3 being installed according to the command line.
However, now when I try to import sklearn I get a different error:

Any suggestions? I've uninstalled and reinstalled Anaconda and I'm still getting the same issue.

conda list --show-channel-urls

with the version of scipy not matching up with the version that pip installed. Not sure how significant it is but it seemed strange to me.

Doing pip list returns

pip list says scipy is version 1.3.1, while conda list says it's version 1.3.0. Again, not sure how relevant it is, but seems strange
EDIT 3: I got this error after putting the following lines (suggested by @Brennan) in my command prompt then running the file
pip uninstall scikit-learn
pip uninstall scipy
conda uninstall scikit-learn
conda uninstall scipy
conda update --all
conda install scipy
conda install scikit-learn
This is the new error I get when trying to import sklearn:

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
A possible cause of this might be me deleting the mkl_rt.dll file from my Anaconda/Library/bin after encountering the error described here: https://github.com/ContinuumIO/anaconda-issues/issues/10182
This puts me in a predicament, because reinstalling Anaconda to repair this will get me the same "ordinal 242 could not be located" error that I faced earlier, but not repairing it will continue the issue with sklearn...
FINAL EDIT: Solved by installing old version of Anaconda. Will mark as solved when I am able to (2 days)
I ended up fixing this by uninstalling my current version of Anaconda and installing a version from a few months ago. I didn't get the "ordinal 242" error nor the issues with scikit-learn.
