Did you install the symbolic package using "pkg -forge install symbolic" ?

Rather, try to install   symbolic-win-py-bundle-2.2.4.zip   from 
https://github.com/cbm755/octsympy/releases  (first do "pkg uninstall
symbolic")

This has all the required dependencies for the Octave-Forge symbolic package 
on Windows included so you shouldn't have had to setup Python yourself.
