How to Fix: "ImportError: DLL load failed The specified procedure could not be found." when the DLLs are there - python-3.x

Question

Updated to new Anaconda 2018, opened a jupyter notebook that worked prior to the update. Having problems with loading seaborn into the script. Tried following several threads on this but nothing worked question.
I've tried:
-Setting Enviromental Variables
-Reinstalling Anaconda2018
-Uninstalled and reinstalled seaborn using conda
-Reinstalled SciPy
Running out of options as I want to use Seaborn 0.9.0 and python-3.7 but I cannot seem to get 3.7 to play with 0.9.0. Help?

Any Tips on how to make my question better would also be welcomed as I want to get better at asking these questions.

Answer 1

I have met the same problem and be puzzled by it either this morning........
By carefully checking the Traceback
----> 4 from scipy.sparse.linalg import LinearOperator
It's the issue of scipy, not seaborn.
I try to uninstall conda versions and install pip versions scipy and numpy, it works now. please have a try, hopefully it could help u too.
$> conda remove --force numpy, scipy
$> pip install numpy
$> pip install scipy

Answer 2

i have removed completely seaborn, numpy and scipy then i reinstalled them and it works for me.
In my anaconda Powershell i excuted this command:
conda remove --force seaborn numpy scipy
then, in jupyter notebook and execut this in one cell.
pip install seaborn numpy scipy
