'Conda' is not recognized as internal or e

问题:

I installed Anaconda3 4.4.0 (32 bit) on my Windows 7 Professional machine and imported NumPy and Pandas on Jupyter notebook so I assume Python was installed correctly. But when I type conda list and conda --version in command prompt, it says conda is not recognized as internal or external command.

I have set environment variable for Anaconda3; Variable Name: Path, Variable Value: C:\Users\dipanwita.neogy\Anaconda3

How do I make it work?

回答1:

Although you were offered a good solution by others I think it is helpful to point out what is really happening. As per the Anaconda 4.4 changleog, https://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/changelog:

On Windows, the PATH environment variable is no longer changed by default, as this can cause trouble with other software. The recommended approach is to instead use Anaconda Navigator or the Anaconda Command Prompt (located in the Start Menu under “Anaconda”) when you wish to use Anaconda software.

This is a change from previous installations. It is suggested to use Navigator or the Anaconda Prompt although you can always add it to your PATH as well. During the install the box to add Anaconda to the PATH is now unchecked but you can select it.

I found the solution. Variable value should be C:\Users\dipanwita.neogy\Anaconda3\Scripts

When you install anaconda on windows now, it doesn't automatically add Python or Conda to your path.

While during the installation process you can check this box, you can also add python and/or python to your path manually (as you can see below the image)

If you don’t know where your conda and/or python is, you type the following commands into your anaconda prompt

where python
where conda

Next, you can add Python and Conda to your path by using the setx command in your command prompt (replace C:\Users\mgalarnyk\Anaconda2 with the results you got when running where python and where conda).

SETX PATH "%PATH%;C:\Users\mgalarnyk\Anaconda2\Scripts;C:\Users\mgalarnyk\Anaconda2"

Next close that command prompt and open a new one. Congrats you can now use conda and python

Just to be clear, you need to go to the controlpanel\System\Advanced system settings\Environment Variables\Path, then hit edit and add:

C:Users\user.user\Anaconda3\Scripts

to the end and restart the cmd line

I was faced with the same issue in windows 10, Updating the environment variable following steps, it's working fine.

I know It is a lengthy answer for the simple environment setups, I thought it's may be useful for the new window 10 users.

1) Open Anaconda Prompt:

2) Check Conda Installed Location.

where conda

3) Open Advanced System Settings

4) Click on Environment Variables

5) Edit Path

6) Add New Path

 C:\Users\RajaRama\Anaconda3\Scripts

 C:\Users\RajaRama\Anaconda3

7) Open Command Prompt and Check Versions

回答6:

If you have a newer version of the Anaconda Navigator, open the Anaconda Prompt program that came in the install. Type all the usual conda update/conda install commands there.

I think the answers above explain this, but I could have used a very simple instruction like this. Perhaps it will help others.

回答7:

Go To anaconda prompt(type "anaconda" in search box in your laptop). type following commands

where conda

add that location to your environment path variables. Close the cmd and open it again

If you don't want to add Anaconda to env. path and you are using Windows try this:

• Open cmd;
• Type path to your folder instalation. It's something like: C:\Users\your_home folder\Anaconda3\Scripts
• Test Anaconda, for exemple type conda --version.
• Update Anaconda: conda update conda or conda update --all or conda update anaconda.

Update Spyder:

• conda update qt pyqt
• conda update spyder
