Anaconda环境问题

Question

I have installed anaconda navigator and through that I have installed jupyter notebook. I also have anaconda prompt.

The conda info output in prompt is different from the jupyter notebook output

Anaconda Prompt output for conda info:

Jupyter output for the same:

       offline mode : False

conda env list output:

# conda environments:
#
base                  *  C:\Users\***\Anaconda2
                         C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3

I have looked into this but didn't help. I believe this lack of sync in the environments is causing problems to installing more packages. On running the same command in these environments, I get different errors(obvious). How do I change the environment in the anaconda prompt to anaconda3 as the active env. So that any installations from the prompt will reflect the same in the notebook.

Any help is appreciated.

Answer 1

my recommendation would be:

1) uninstall the older version of anaconda(in this case anaconda2) and you can skip other steps if it works. If it doesn't work, uninstall both anaconda from your windows. (control panel->uninstall or change a program -> python 3.xx or 2.xx (anaconda3 or 2 etc). you should have two there.

2) install anaconda 3 again but just one.

3) create new environment for different version python you need.
