File "c:\Users\csany\Documents\PYTHON_BEGINEERS\read.py", line 1, in import cv2 as cv File "C:\Users\csany\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\lib\site-packages\cv2_init_.py", line 5, in
from .cv2 import * ImportError: DLL load failed while importing cv2: The specified module could not be found.

You can download the latest OpenCV 3.2.0 for Python 3.6 on Windows 32-bit or 64-bit machine, look for file starts withopencv_python‑3.2.0‑cp36‑cp36m, from this unofficial site. Then type below command to install it:

  • pip install opencv_python‑3.2.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl (32-bit version)
  • pip install opencv_python‑3.2.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win_amd64.whl (64-bit version)

I think it would be easier.

  • WARNING: Requirement 'opencv_python~4.4.0~cp36~cp36m~win_amd64.whl' looks like a filename, but the file does not exist ERROR: opencv_python~4.4.0~cp36~cp36m~win_amd64.whl is not a valid wheel filename. And that's what I get when I use the command prompt in windows. – SANYAM CHAURASIA Aug 15 '21 at 07:13
