I have just tried to update my anaconda environment to the latest version and I am now receiving errors. I opened the conda environment as an admin, and the commands issued were:

conda update conda
conda update anaconda

First command finished fine. Second command produced error:

pythonw.exe - Entry Point Not Found

The procedure entry point ?PyWinObject_FromULARGE_INTEGER@@YAPEAU_object@@AEAT_ULARGE_INTEGER@@@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library c:ProgramDataAnaconda3pythoncom37.dll

I have found a reference to this sort of error that requires me to copy a file libssl-1-1-x64.dll from Anaconda3/Library/bin with the one from Anaconda3/DLLs.

How to Fix Entry Point Not Found while installing libraries in conda environment

However, I do not have that file, in the source location. Is there any commands I can issue to download this file again, or somewhere online I can safely download that one file from?

Answer

Sorry all – the clue was in the error message. The entry on how to fix entry point led me in the right direction. but it was the pythoncom37.dll file I needed to copy.

That’s what you get for blindly following instructions.

Many thanks.
