@faraanh I am having the same problem! Any luck fixing it?

Seems to be a problem with loading capstone, from the last lines in your log (and mine). Pip installing capstone on Windows is tricky as it wants to build (cmake or nmake) locally. This package says it's a prebuilt capstone for Windows: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/capstone-windows , but installing that didn't immediately resolve the issue for me. I ended up uninstalling (pip), removing the capstone folder (explorer) and then pip installing capstone-windows which cleared the error.

This manifested after a reinstallation of Python 2.7 (removed manual install, then installed with Choco) .

hth, adric

This error is weirding me out! :hear_no_evil:

I successfully installed Capstone via pip3 install capstone, and it pretty much runs fine. But then I decided I wanted to try the Python tests in the ./capstone/bindings/python.

Only to be greeted with:

#  python3 test_arm.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "test_arm.py", line 5, in <module>
    from capstone import *
  File "/home/xxx/capstone/bindings/python/capstone/__init__.py", line 315, in <module>
    raise ImportError("ERROR: fail to load the dynamic library.")
ImportError: ERROR: fail to load the dynamic library.

Which library is it talking about? Looks like I'm missing something...

This issue has been resolved by following this updated installation procedure, when using Cygwin and Python3. A new Wiki page has been added, describing the procedure.

For anyone else having this problem: for me it didn't find the dll because it got installed into the wrong folder. It should've been installed into ...\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages\capstone\capstone.dll however for some reason it got installed to ...\Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages\users\[user]\appdata\local\programs\python\python39\Lib\site-packages\capstone. Not joking.
