The error you're encountering, OSError: [WinError 126] The specified module could not be found
, typically indicates that a required DLL file is missing or not found in the expected location. Here are some steps to troubleshoot and resolve this issue:
Ensure All Dependencies are Installed: Make sure that all dependencies required by PyTorch are installed. You can do this by running:
conda install mkl mkl-include
Reinstall PyTorch: Sometimes, reinstalling PyTorch can resolve missing dependency issues. Run the following commands in your Anaconda Prompt:
pip uninstall torch
pip cache purge
pip install torch
Check for Conflicting Libraries: Ensure there are no conflicting versions of libraries. You can create a new conda environment and install PyTorch there to avoid conflicts:
conda create -n new_env python=3.9
conda activate new_env
pip install torch
Update Anaconda and Conda: Make sure your Anaconda and Conda are up to date:
conda update conda
conda update anaconda
Set Environment Variables: For Windows users, setting specific environment variables can help resolve such issues. Open Anaconda Prompt and set the following:
set CONDA_DLL_SEARCH_MODIFICATION_ENABLE=1
Verify DLL Files:
Ensure that the fbgemm.dll
file exists in the torch\lib
directory. If it is missing, reinstalling PyTorch should typically resolve this.
If the issue persists after trying these steps, you might want to check the PyTorch installation guide for any additional platform-specific instructions.
