Answer 1

its worked well for me.* Answer is Need to put cv2.pyd file to your virtual environment. need to put under two folder of envs,

• first is under DLLS folder and Second is under Lib/site-packages

To get cv2.pyd > download from this link https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencvlibrary/ and then extract the download file

You will get opencv folder, after that go inside opencv folder like Downloads\opencv\build\python\2.7 and go one deeper folder depend on your 32 or 64 window version

Copy cv2.pyd Important **** after copying cv2.pyd file to your envs, you need to rename cv2.pyd to _cv2.pyd
