Describe the problem

Tensorflow is not able to get imported properly.
the program is simple:

import tensorflow as tf

hello = tf.constant('Hello, TensorFlow!')
sess = tf.Session()
print(sess.run(hello))

Tensorflow returns following error:

Failed to load the native TensorFlow runtime.

See https://www.tensorflow.org/install/errors

for some common reasons and solutions.  Include the entire stack trace
above this error message when asking for help.

Process finished with exit code -1

I have set all the environment variables.
One issue I faces during the installation was that the cudnn-10.1 zip downloaded from the Nvidia website seems to be corrupt, no matter what zip software I use.

Although, I was able to unzip the required files (not sure if they are not broken), and follow this process: https://docs.nvidia.com/deeplearning/sdk/cudnn-install/index.html#install-windows

I've tried multiple TensorFlow versions including the CPU only ones. Same issue in each.

Please try to install the correct VisualC++ Redist. - see #35036 (comment)

@praharshbhatt, Check your CPU model, does your CPU support AVX instruction sets?
Next, MSVC 2015 redistributable update 3. It is listed here under windows:
https://www.tensorflow.org/install/pip.

@praharshbhatt, Were you able to solve this issue. Thanks!

[praharshbhatt]

Thanks for the reply, I had the work done with visual CV so did not have to install Tensorflow.
I will comment if the issue arises in future.
