Enable C Extension for gensim on Windows · KK's Blog (fromkk)
These days, I’m working on some text classification works, and I use gensim ’s doc2vec function.
When using gensim, it shows this warning message:
C extension not loaded for Word2Vec, training will be slow.

I tried to install mingw and add it into the path, but it’s not working.
