How to find python version in anaconda continuum repo?

Question

TensorFlow is not working in python 3.7, I wish to install anaconda with python 3.6.9, in the https://repo.continuum.io/archive/ I couldn't find which version, also the https://www.anaconda.com/distribution/#download-section having only for python 3.7.

How to find Anaconda2-5.3.1-Windows-x86.exe (in the archive) having which version of python. Looking for Windows

I am not looking to create conda env for python 3.6

Answer 1

By default, the detailed version is not supported.

If you want Python in version 3.6.9 (with Anaconda)

I recommend to install version 3.6. (I know you don't want...)

This seems to be a policy implemented by the Anaconda side for version-specific management.

Answer 2

By default Anaconda comes with Python 3.7.3, I installed that. Spyder opens with 3.7, Then in Anaconda Prompt, conda version is 4.7.10, with this Python downgrade it is not supported properly:

conda update conda

gives 4.7.11, then

conda install python=3.6.9

installs Python 3.6.9 smoothly, Spyder opens with 3.6,

Now TensorFlow works like a charm
