Lxml import issues when using Scrapy - scrapy

Question

I am trying to use Scrapy with Anaconda/Miniconda on Windows 10. Installation goes fine, but trying to actually run Scrapy gives the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\ProgramData\Miniconda3\Scripts\scrapy-script.py", line 6, in <module>

from .. import etree
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
I have tried reinstalling Scrapy, lxml, and Anaconda itself (this time, I'm using a clean install of Miniconda), as well as downloading unofficial lxml build from https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/, as suggested in one of the answers on Stack Overflow, but the problem persists. I have also done this on an Amazon AWS EC2 instance started from scratch, but I'm getting the same issue.
It seems to be something relatively common, but I couldn't find an answer that would work for me. What's an appropriate way to address this? Is it just about lxml, or is there something else causing this problem?
