Anaconda Jupyter Notebook Kernel error ImportError: DLL load failed while importing win32api: The specified procedure could not be found

I had python 3.8 and jupyter notebook running in visual studio code before. After I installed Anaconda, I cannot run jupyter notebook any longer and am getting a Kernel error.

I have tried conda install ipykernel --update-deps and conda install pywin32 but the issue persists. How can I fix this?

This suggestion worked for me: pip uninstall pywin32 and then conda install it again:
https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/issues/4980#issuecomment-663885620
how to use pip from conda:
Open Anaconda.
Select Environments in the left hand pane below home.
Just to the right of where you selected and below the "search environments" bar, you should see base(root). Click on it.
A triangle pointing right should appear, click on it an select "open terminal"
Use the regular pip install command here.
then how to install pywin32 using anaconda:
ran conda install from anaconda prompt as admin per this website, https://anaconda.org/anaconda/pywin32 :
conda install -c anaconda pywin32

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
Because of this I can't use Jupyter to run anything.
How to fix it?

This is a problem with your environment. Here's how you debug it:
Check whether the kernel specified in Jupyter config (see %APPDATA%\jupyter\kernels\<kernel_name>\kernel.json / ~/.local/share/jupyter/kernels/<kernel_name>/kernel.json on Linux) is launchable via the command line.
E.g. in my kernel.json file, there is:
{
"argv": [
"/home/mrmino/.virtualenvs/taf/bin/python3.7",
"-m",
"ipykernel_launcher",
"-f",
"{connection_file}"
],
"display_name": "Python 3",
"language": "python"
}
Therefore, on my system, the command /home/mrmino/.virtualenvs/taf/bin/python3.7 -m ipykernel_launcher should start ipython kernel.
If on yours it does not, you have to install it or manually correct it in the JSON kernelspec file.

Try this, it worked for me.
python3 -m ipykernel install --user

How can I solve this kernal error in Jupyter on anaconda

I tried to open a notebook from jupyter but I have the message below.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
FYI, I have installed anaconda3 64bit on windows 10.
Thanks in advance.

Please try out by creating a new conda environment. Create conda environment using the command :
conda create -n <env_name> -c intel python=3.6
Activate the environmemt using the command :
source activate <env_name>
Please install the required packages in this environment. Kindly install the ipykernal using the command:
conda install ipykernel
ipython kernel install --name <env_name> --user
Select the installed ipykernal from jupyter notebook.

Path of Python is trying to access an old version. And this path is not accessible in the Finder (in MacOS) [duplicate]

I have been using jupyter as well as Atom with python for more than a year now. I'm currently using Python 3.7.2 on macOS 10.14. There is no problem running Python from the Terminal and here are the PATH I get after running sys.path:

I can open a jupyter notebook in jupyter but for some obscure reason, I cannot run the notebook and there is a red Kernel error on the top right of the page with the following error message when I click on it:

Arcgis Pro 2.0 Jupyter Notebook Install Fails

I did a fresh windows install of ArcGIS Pro 2.0 to a local user location. I then used the python package installer to install spyder and jupyter.
I launched jupyter notebook from the python command prompt that resides in the start menu for ArcGIS Pro.
Jupyter launches, but creating a new notebook always starts with a dead kernel. ipykernel is installed according to the ArcGIS pro python package manager. The kernel error message follows.

FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified
I've worked on this problem for a few days but I can't figure it out. I've looked at a number of posts that discuss connecting Jupyter and arcgis. They all make it appear possible if not easy, but this seems like a non-starter. What is missing, and why is the kernel starting dead? How do I fix it?

you said it's dead kernel though python is installed , assuming everything ok (versions, etc) ,that's means jupyter didn't recognize the kernel yet
The error is matching that of: issue
I think it's mostly the same , sometimes the kernels json files for jupyter need to be created in some folder (in windows it were in C:/Programs Data/Jupyter/.. ) before the first usage
launch the command (as admin):
python -m Jupyter kernelspec install-self
Then retry,

To fix it, run the python command prompt with the following:
(gee) C:\Users\thapa\AppData\Local\ESRI\conda\envs\gee>
conda activate tensorflow1
conda install ipykernel
ipython kernel install --name tensorflow1 --user
Restart ArcGIS pro, now it will work.
