I'm trying to update Anaconda and its packages using "conda update --name root conda". but it fails every time.
Error message : EnvironmentNotWritableError: The current user does not have write permissions to the target environment.
environment location: C:ProgramDataAnaconda3
Any help ?

  • Maybe you could give some more details about your environment and the versions of software that might be pertinent to the question to help anyone who might be able to help you.

  • In addition, in more recent versions of conda (for the last 1.5 years or so) the main environment is called base, not root.
