Telegram bot: 'cannot import name 'Animation' from 'telegram', how to get rid of the error?

Question

Python

telegram.ext Error when importing

ImportError: cannot import name 'Animation' from 'telegram' (unknown location)

I tried deleting telegram, but the error does not disappear. Before that it worked correctly.

Answer 1

Animation is the first item in the telegram module when loading the components of the package
. Perhaps the telegram module did not load at all, it was not installed correctly, the environment was not updated after installation.
