how to install the latest version of Tensorflow for CPU - tensorflow

Question

I am trying to install TensorFlow and I get this error when I try to import it :

Failed to load the native TensorFlow runtime.
python version : 3.7.6
conda version : 4.8.1
tensorflow version: 2.1.0 (the latest)
conda packages have the same versions and Microsoft C++ Redist 2015 is installed

Try installing or re-installing the C++ Redistributable from here. Make sure you are downloading the "Visual Studio 2015, 2017 and 2019" x64 version and restart your computer after the installation is complete.
