Python version does not work on Windows

[VikingScientist]

At least it throws a million warnings. This boils down to

BLAS error using scipy.sparse.linalg.spsolve on csr-format matrix

which means we have to find a work-around. For linux distribution, this means exposing the BLAS functionality through scikit-umfpack and a simple pip install of this will fix this here. Windows however is a different beast and scikit-umfpack only works on python 3.6 or earlier

The last link points to an alternative solution in using pypardiso4py, but as is clarely stated on this page, this is an anaconda envorement solution only, and it will not work in combination with pip.
