Numpy Import Error in Anaconda Environment using Spyder (WINDOWS)

BACKGROUND
Just two days ago I was able to run any program that had a numpy dependency. Now when I try to run my code using pandas, matplotlib or any module that depends on numpy, I get the below error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<ipython-input-8-8fcf286af663>", line 7, in <module>
import numpy
File "path\to\Python\Python38\site-packages\numpy\__init__.py", line 140, in <module>
from . import core
File "path\to\Python\Python38\site-packages\numpy\core\__init__.py", line 48, in <module>
raise ImportError(msg)
ImportError:
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS FOR ADVICE ON HOW TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE!
Importing the numpy C-extensions failed. This error can happen for
many reasons, often due to issues with your setup or how NumPy was
installed.
We have compiled some common reasons and troubleshooting tips at:
https://numpy.org/devdocs/user/troubleshooting-importerror.html
Please note and check the following:
* The Python version is: Python3.7 from "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\pythonw.exe"
* The NumPy version is: "1.19.5"
and make sure that they are the versions you expect.
Please carefully study the documentation linked above for further help.
Original error was: No module named 'numpy.core._multiarray_umath'
SETTINGS CHECK
The return message references this site: https://numpy.org/devdocs/user/troubleshooting-importerror.html but nothing there has helped me.
I checked my Path variable to make sure that all the required directory locations are there and there is no issue.
I successfully import numpy when I compile code from cmd using python -c "import numpy; print('done')"
I am using an anaconda environment, the Spyder IDE, and again it was just fine two days ago.
I checked the python version from pythonw.exe and it seems fine as well
What could be wrong with my environment?
ATTEMPTED SOLUTIONS HERE
Also, I've checked the following links with no success:

Can't import numpy anaconda
Import error: Anaconda numpy (numpy and Anaconda already installed, virtualenv)

Turns out my problem was very simple. The main solution I was trying was to uninstall and reinstall.
Every time I installed and uninstalled the modules, I did so from the standard command line.
That was wrong since anaconda uses its own virtual environment to store data.
So all I had to do was run this command from the anaconda command prompt:
pip install --upgrade pandas && pip install --upgrade numpy
this command would work just as well:
pip uninstall pandas && pip uninstall numpy && pip install pandas
(since the last install would automatically download any dependencies that pandas has, which is numpy

Installing and importing Python Modules onto OS X

I've been trying for a couple of hours already. It seems IDLE can't find any third-party module. I am a Python beginner.
Here is some info about my system:
OSX version: 10.11.5
python version: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5
The initial installation using pip (among other methods) seems to work fine. When I repeat the installation, terminal responds with:
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pyperclip in
./anaconda/lib/python3.4/site-packages
However, when I go to IDLE (Python 3.4) and try to import the module, IDLE responds with:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in
import pyperclip ImportError: No module named 'pyperclip'
I have read that it may have something to do with my PATH or some virtual environment. I’ll be frank, I’m not sure what to make of these as they seem beyond my current ability.
This inability to import modules is becoming an almost insurmountable roadblock to advancing with Python. If you can offer any ideas on what I can do or can ELI5 the solution, I am forever in your debt?

It seems you are using conda, but you are trying to install the pyperclip module with pip. Have you tried running conda install pyperclip?
As stated here:
Because Conda introduces a new packaging format, you cannot use pip and Conda interchangeably; pip cannot install the Conda package format. You can use the two tools side by side but they do not interoperate either.

How to import Scipy and Numpy in Python?

I am very new to Python and want to add Numpy and Scipy module. I think my question is very simple for you. I am using Python 3.06a.1 version. I think I already installed something called Anaconda that contains those library. When I type import scipy I get the following message:
import scipy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#6>", line 1, in <module>
import scipy
ImportError: No module named 'scipy'
also when I want to installed with command line I get the following message which means that I have it already.
localhost:~ user$ pip install scipy
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): scipy in ./anaconda/lib/python3.5/site-packages
localhost:~ user$
Please help me to fix this problem

You shouldn't have problem with scipy and numpy if you installed Anaconda. What I'm advising you may sound stupid, but I'm sure it has a good chance to solve your problem.
Relaunch Anaconda, reboot your computer, reinstall Anaconda.
Edit : also watch out to use "scipy" and not "spicy" as I just witnessed in your logs.

if you are using anaconda, try installing scipy using anaconda:
conda install scipy

no module named 'numpy' (windows 7, python 3.4.3, numpy-1.9.2)

Please only respond to this post if you use Python on Windows, rather than Mac or Linux.
Error message:
>>> import numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "stdin", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'numpy'
Questions:
Regarding windows 7, python 3.4.3 and numpy-1.9.2, are there any
conflicts that would prevent these from working together?
Into which directory (please write out the complete directory path
starting with "C:") should I extract the contents of the numpy zip
file?
What is the exact command that I need to type into python command
prompt in order to install numpy?
Thanks in advance for your assistance

I was also facing this issue where in I tried using
import numpy
But it has given me error "ImportError: No module named 'numpy'"
I installed numpy using "C:\user>python -mpip install numpy" and it was successfully installed.
However I was again getting the same error
Then I checked that the path where in numpy was intalled was not listed in
import sys
print(sys.path)
Then I appended my path wherein numpy was installed using ">>> sys.path.append(r"C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages").
The above command worked fine, still problem not resolved then I restarted my python session again.
Finally it worked..!!!!(As after every append we have to restart our python session).

1) No there isn't.
2) You can use pip. pip install numpy
If you don't have pip installed, install it, its the most often used way of installing python packages. Yes it is possible to do under windows.
3) Once you have the python command prompt, you already have python installed.

1) no
2) It doesn't actually matter as pip or the installer will figure that out for you. However, just so you know, pip or whatever will install numpy into your site-packages folder.
3) I recommend downloading the NumPy installer from SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.9.2/
Then you don't have to worry about having the right compiler installed. However, if you want to use pip, then you'll need to install the appropriate compiler. This is documented at the following locations:
Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 3.4
https://matthew-brett.github.io/pydagogue/python_msvc.html

I'm not even close to an expert on Python. That said, I like the notion of "keep it simple." I chose to install a Python distribution that already includes numpy. Specifially I installed Python(x,y). Everything seems to be working just fine right after install. I appreciate all those who commented on my question. Thanks

Python on OS X can't see most recent numpy

easy_install -U numpy
When trying to use matplotlib on Mac OS X 10.7.5, it appears that Python is always finding an older version of numpy, not the binary release I install from the SourceForge site.
When I try:
>>> from matplotlib import pyplot
I get:
RuntimeError: module compiled against API version 6 but this version of numpy is 4
(and a lot more error-tracing)
I looked for answers and tried:
sudo easy_install -U numpy
which had worked for others in my situation, despite errors when it ran. My error was:
RuntimeError: Broken toolchain: cannot link a simple C program
/tmp/easy_install-tntLIw/numpy-1.6.2/numpy/distutils/misc_util.py:252: RuntimeWarning: Parent module 'numpy.distutils' not found while handling absolute import
and I'm still unable to use matplotlib, and Python still reports seeing numpy version 1.5.1
A variety of attempts to install pre-built Python combos such as scipy, superpack all yield the same result.
I'd appreciate some help and advice.
