I have the anaconda package and run Spyder. Here is my system information:
anaconda 2018.12 py37_0
Python
Adding "<Path to miniconda or anaconda>\Library\bin" folder to PATH solved this problem for me.
I had exactly the same problem. My computer is exactly the same and the versions of Python and pip are also the same.
It's a dll conflict with libeay32.dll.
I can solve this problem by adding dir path of python which has libeay32.dll (in my case C:\Users\Gabriel\Anaconda3\pkgs\openssl-1.1.1a-he774522_0\Library\bin) in system environment as topmost position.
