Conda commands not working in Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL)

Question

I installed Anaconda3 in my windows environment and added

C:\Users\user\Anaconda3\Scripts
C:\Users\user\Anaconda3

to my windows environmental variables. Theoretically, this should also update my path in WSL like it does with visual studio code. However it didn't and now I can't run conda commands from the ubuntu terminal. I can't figure out how to fix this...thanks!

*It should be noted that I am also using zsh and oh my zsh by running the code

# Launch Zsh
if [ -t 1 ]; then
        exec zsh
fi

Inside my bashrc file

Answer 1

I had a similar problem. The issue was, that I had installed conda for windows and it seems it doesn't run fine with wsl . Try downloading and installing conda for ubuntu from the wsl command line interface and add the folders to the path. It worked for me.

This link helped me download conda from wsl command life interface.

If path not added, export PATH="/Users/username/anaconda/bin:$PATH" to your .zsh_config file.
