<-- chose 'n' for install
I chose 'n' here, because this is when I crashed my Linux server because I ran out of disk space when a billion programs (give or take) were asked to be installed. Instead, I chose 'n', and then wanted to log this to a file so I could see the entire list because I couldn't scroll up in the Windows command prompt, so I ran the code below instead. It sat for a while, and then I broke out using CTRL+C. Continue reading after code block for my question.

CondaValueError: Value error: prefix already exists: C:\Program Files\Miniconda2
\envs\ENV1
How can I remove the ENV1 prefix so I can try re-installing? And how can I log all of this output in Windows. The input is not visible if I move to C:\output.txt.
