[Python] Running labelme in VS Code terminal gets ImportError: DLL load failed while importing...

I'm following along with this YouTube video.

I've already run the command

pip install labelme opencv-python tensorflow matplotlib albumentations


in the VS Code powershell terminal and successfully ran the code to capture images for labelling. However, when I try to run the command labelme, I get the error

Uninstalling and reinstalling with pip didn't fix it.

Python is version 3.12.10 (64-bit), pip/VS Code/Windows are up-to-date.

How do I fix this?
