Background
I'm trying to work on a GAN neural network (I'm a beginner for both Python and Machine-Learning), and I need Tensorflow.
Problem
I have tried to use TensorFlow but can't install. I have read questions and answers on SO about various errors, and have tested out those solutions, but I believe this case is different.
What I have tried (in chronological order)
1. Plain Reboot
a) Close all tabs for Jupyter Notebook
b) Close Anaconda Navigator
c) Restart Jupyter Notebook
d) Rerun code
Result: ImportError: no module
2. Reinstall tf
a) Repeat 1a and 1b
b) Open Anaconda Prompt
c) pip install tensorflow
Result: module installed
3. Check out Navigator
Tensorflow installed in all environments I have.
4. Reinstall tf (Take 2)
a) Repeat 1a and 1b
b) Open Anaconda Prompt
c) conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow
Result: EnvironmentNotWritableError:The current user does not have write permissions to the target environment. environment location: C:\ProgramData\<my username>
5. Run as admin (from this question)
a) Repeat 1a and 1b
b) Open Anaconda Prompt
c) conda install -c conda-forge tensorflow
Result:
Preparing transaction: done
Verifying transaction: done
Executing transaction: <after some text> done
6. Run in Jupyter
The code has nothing to do with TF at the moment, but still, it doesn't work.
import tensorflow as tf
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import os
import glob2
font_lib = glob2.glob('**/*.ttf', recursive=True)
count = 0
for f in font_lib:
count = count + 1
if count < 10:
print (f)
else:
break
print ("done")
Result:

7. Update h5py
a) Followed @Alireza Tajadod's instructions and tried. b) Run code in Jupyter
Result: Same as 6)...
I have tried every method I could, and any help would be highly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Edit:
Reminded by the answer by @GarytheIceBreaker: Sorry that I forgot to mention, but I have everything installed and set up in Windows. Although this might be frustrating to some, please suggest solutions that can be done within Windows OS premises. Thanks!
