I am trying to execute handtracking module program,but I am getting this dll error while trying to import handtracking module

Program code:

import cv2

from cvzone.HandTrackingModule import HandDetector

detector=HandDetector(detectionCon=0.8)

cap =cv2.VideoCapture(0)

Answer 1

Did you add the required dll to your environment? If not you may add the dll to your path and restart your working environment.

Answer 2

You should uninstall mediapipe and install it again.

If it is not working still you should type in your terminal pip install msvc-runtime to avoid the error.

If want any other version, you visit there ===> https://pypi.org/project/msvc-runtime/#history

Thanks.
