In case error messages contains “ImportError: DLL load failed while importing cl: The specified procedure could not be found” see also or “”clGetPlatformIDs failed: PLATFORM_NOT_FOUND_KHR”, please install recent drivers for your graphics card and/or OpenCL device.

• AMD drivers

• NVidia drivers

In case installation didn’t work in the first attempt, you may have to call this command line to reset the napari configuration:

napari --reset
