Anaconda
2 and 3 are installing without errors. I reboot because the installer prompts me to do so. When I open the Anaconda Prompt
, python
, pythonw
or activate.bat
aren't found. Looking in the Anaconda[2|3]
folder, I can't find expected .exe
and .bat
files. What's going wrong?
I also notice that conda update --all
wants to update many libs and eventually errors out.
Anaconda installs and updates can silently fail due to conflicts with 3rd party antivirus (for me it's WebRoot
) programs. An indicator of Anaconda antivirus conflicts is missing .exe
and .bat
files, and sometimes requests to reboot. The fix is to shutdown the antivirus program and reinstall Anaconda
. I suspect Anaconda isn't following correct Windows installer procedures as it's the only installer than conflicts with WebRoot.
