Issue with scipy install on windows

I had previously install scipy, numpy and then scikit-learn which were all working fine. Today, I updated all my libraries with a pip install. numpy and scikit-learn updated to the latest versions, but scipy had a compile issue and was rolled back.

When I try

from sklearn.ensemble import RandomForestClassifier 

I get

ImportError: No module named 'format' 

I tried to resolve this, but it didn't work for me.

So, I uninstalled scipy, so that I can reinstall without any errors. I am unable to do this.

Failed building wheel for scipy when i try pip install scipy

this is the trace:

I see that libraries blas and lapack are missing. Is there a simpler way to resolve my error than having to make from the installers. I would have to get BLAS, LAPACK, ATLAS for this.

Any inputs as to why I faced this issue, did the library files get deleted when i tried to update?

Thanks!
