This has been plaguing me for a while now, and I'm not sure what to do about it. I've tried modifying the init.py pyWinhook script's imports, but to no avail. Here's the whole error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "d:\myuser\Documents\Python\evil_programs\keylogger.py", line 6, in <module>
import pyWinhook as pyHook
File "C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\pyWinhook\__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
from .HookManager import *
File "C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\pyWinhook\HookManager.py", line 1, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name 'cpyHook' from partially initialized module 'pyWinhook' (most likely due to a circular import) (C:\Users\myuser\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python310\site-packages\pyWinhook\__init__.py)
Thanks in advance
The way I fixed this is by installing Python 3.8.
Python 3.10 and 3.11 produced this issue.
I got this idea from the executable name on GitHub "pyWinhook-1.6.2.win-amd64-py3.8.exe"
Why it does not work with newer python, I have no clue.

I Updated my python3 version to 3.10 now my sticky note giving this error
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: cannot import name '_gi' from partially initialized module 'gi' (most likely due to a circular import) (/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/__init__.py)
I update my python from 3.8 to 3.9.5 and had the same issue. This was because python 3.10 is updated but the filename of the .so file of the package is not changed. So the __init__.py of the gi package will try to load a file whose name contains the previous version of python.
One solution would be make a copy of the .so file and rename it.
cd /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gi/
sudo cp _gi.cpython-{older version number}-x86_64-linux-gnu.so _gi.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
Please replace the {older version number} to a older python version so that the file of this name exists in the directory.
we are using python library my-voice-analysis but getting myspsolution import error please tell what is the solution
import myspsolution as mysp
p="Audio" # Audio File title
c=r"speech.wav"
mysp.myspgend(p,c)
Traceback (most recent call last):

i know its a bit late and you probs dont need it anymore but
replace
import myspsolution as mysp
with
mysp=__import__("my-voice-analysis")
I have a script named requests.py that needs to use the third-party requests package. The script either can't import the package, or can't access its functionality.
Why isn't this working, and how do I fix it?
Trying a plain import and then using the functionality results in an AttributeError:
import requests
res = requests.get('http://www.google.ca')
print(res)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/me/dev/rough/requests.py", line 1, in <module>

AttributeError: module 'requests' has no attribute 'get'
In more recent versions of Python, the error message instead reads AttributeError: partially initialized module 'requests' has no attribute 'get' (most likely due to a circular import).
Using from-import of a specific name results in an ImportError:
from requests import get
res = get('http://www.google.ca')
print(res)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "requests.py", line 1, in <module>

ImportError: cannot import name 'get'
In more recent versions of Python, the error message instead reads ImportError: cannot import name 'get' from partially initialized module 'requests' (most likely due to a circular import) (/Users/me/dev/rough/requests.py).
Using from-import for a module inside the package results in a different ImportError:
from requests.auth import AuthBase

File "/Users/me/dev/rough/requests.py", line 1, in <module>

This happens because your local module named requests.py shadows the installed requests module you are trying to use. The current directory is prepended to sys.path, so the local name takes precedence over the installed name.
An extra debugging tip when this comes up is to look at the Traceback carefully, and realize that the name of your script in question is matching the module you are trying to import:
Notice the name you used in your script:
File "/Users/me/dev/rough/requests.py", line 1, in <module>
The module you are trying to import: requests
Rename your module to something else to avoid the name collision.
Python may generate a requests.pyc file next to your requests.py file (in the __pycache__ directory in Python 3). Remove that as well after your rename, as the interpreter will still reference that file, re-producing the error. However, the pyc file in __pycache__ should not affect your code if the py file has been removed.
In the example, renaming the file to my_requests.py, removing requests.pyc, and running again successfully prints <Response [200]>.
The error occurs because a user-created script has a name-clash with a library filename. Note, however, that the problem can be caused indirectly. It might take a little detective work to figure out which file is causing the problem.
For example: suppose that you have a script mydecimal.py that includes import decimal, intending to use the standard library decimal library for accurate floating-point calculations with decimal numbers. That doesn't cause a problem, because there is no standard library mydecimal. However, it so happens that decimal imports numbers (another standard library module) for internal use, so a script called numbers.py in your project would cause the problem.

If you still encounter problems like this after tracking own and renaming or removing the appropriate .py files in your project, also check for .pyc files that Python uses to cache bytecode compilation when importing modules. In 3.x, these will be stored in folders with the special name __pycache__; it is safe to delete such folders and files, and possible to suppress them (but you normally won't want to).
