[Python] python - spaCy module won't import

I recently tried to install the spaCy module for python 3.x. The installation looks like it runs successfully (shows no errors), but when I try to import spaCy, or when I try to install spaCy models, I get the error below. I have tried installing spaCy using both pip install and conda install, and I have tried forcing a reinstall of numpy.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\numpy\core\__init__.py",
line 16, in <module>
from . import multiarray
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

ImportError:
Importing the multiarray numpy extension module failed. Most
likely you are trying to import a failed build of numpy.
If you're working with a numpy git repo, try `git clean -xdf` (removes all
files not under version control). Otherwise reinstall numpy.
