On Windows, running “import tensorflow” generates No module named “_pywrap_tensorflow” error

by

The problem was the cuDNN Library for me – for whatever reason cudnn-8.0-windows10-x64-v6.0 was NOT working – I used cudnn-8.0-windows10-x64-v5.1 – ALL GOOD!

My setup working with Win10 64 and the Nvidia GTX780M:

  • Be sure you have the lib MSVCP140.DLL by checking your system/path – if not get it here
  • Run the windows installer for python 3.5.3-amd64 from here – DO NOT try newer versions as they probably won’t work
  • Get the cuDNN v5.1 for CUDA 8.0 from here – put it under your users folder or in another known location (you will need this in your path)
  • Get CUDA 8.0 x86_64 from here
  • Set PATH vars as expected to point at the cuDNN libs and python (the python path should be added during the python install)
  • Make sure that “.DLL” is included in your PATHEXT variable
  • If you are using tensorflow 1.3 then you want to use cudnn64_6.dll github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/7705

If you run Windows 32 be sure to get the 32 bit versions of the files mentioned above.
