I met some problems after installing Anaconda3. My operation system is Win 10; Anaconda version is Anaconda3-5.2.0-Windows-x86_64; Installation location is : C:\Anaconda When I type “conda”, “python”, ”pip” or “--version”, they work correctly. But if I type “conda list” or “conda update conda ”, it has some errors as followed:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\conda\cli\main.py", line 97, in main
from ..activate import main as activator_main
File "C:\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\conda\activate.py", line 12, in <module>
context.__init__() # oOn import, context does not include SEARCH_PATH. This line fixes that.

'unicode', "special characters are not allowed")
ruamel_yaml.reader.ReaderError: unacceptable character #x0000: special characters are not allowed

I think the reason might be something about unicode, I tried to find the answer on google and stack overflow, unfortunately, I still cannot solve it.
The problem is resovled, the .condarc file have some unicode error, after I deleted it and create a new one, everything is fine.
