Anaconda installed without conda.exe - python-3.x

I had missing conda.exe in Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts folder, so conda command doesn't work. This is not PATH problem. After that I have uninstalled anaconda, rebooted and installed just downloaded last version of anaconda. Installation was without admin rights. After that I still have conda missing in that folder.
What can I do? Is where a way to install conda eventually? Is it better to open an issue?
Windows 10, anaconda 5.01
PS I have previously installed Anaconda. Which I believe was installed with admin rights to whole users. Can it cause such problem?

I had the same issue in installation.
Issue: anaconda.exe file not found
Solution worked for me : Installed with admin rights and anaconda.exe was found in installation folder and startup menu.
Status : Resolved

There have been multiple reports of incomplete Windows Anaconda installations with Anaconda v5.0.1. There is a current workaround that you could try to see if this resolves the problem: https://docs.anaconda.com/anaconda/user-guide/troubleshooting#cannot-open-anaconda-prompt-after-installation
Uninstalled and installed with miniconda. Then installed with conda Anaconda, everything is fine now

I have a M1 Pro MBP and was trying to upgrade my default Python from V3.8.8 to V3.11.1 but now can no longer "see" any packages in Anaconda

In changing the symlink to V3.11.1, I've "lost" access to all Python packages installed under 3.8.8. Aanconda can't find any modules either, either under 3.8 or 3.11 and won't let me reinstall Anaaconda.
At the terminal prompt, I can get to V3.11.1 via Python3 command (not Python) and can see a list of modules but none of the packages previously installed. Tried to reinstall Anaconda but the installer says to upgrade instead. When I try to upgrade at the system prompt, "conda" isn't recognized.
I'm know my references are all messed up but not sure how to get my environment working. Appreciate any help/suggestions.

'{CONDA_ROOT_PREFIX}\\shell\\condabin\\conda-hook.ps1' not found on PS launch from Anaconda Navigator

I had Anaconda3 installed and decided to install miniconda. The initial installation seems to be in ProgramData/Anaconda3 base. Miniconda is in Users\myname\miniconda. When I run anaconda-navigator from the miniconda base installation it reports version 2.1.4. When I run it from Anaconda3 base it is version 1.9.7. The launch link for the PS Prompt on the new mini installation works, but on the old installation of Anaconda3 base, the launch link returns the error.
I'm guessing it might be a path problem but I'm not sure. I don't see any path variable (in Windows 10) with either Anaconda3 or miniconda. The navigator automatically crates those links when you click on install and launch. I tried to remove the application by clicking on the little cog on the card, but all I got was a "Multiple errors" message and it failed to even remove it.
How can I fix this, or have I completely messed up my Anaconda installation?

Spyder, clean Win installation, ver. 4.2.3 - pip gives message "No module named pip"

I have Spyder, clean Win10 installation, ver. 4.2.3.
When I run command pip, it gives message:
Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.
C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Programs\Spyder\Python\python.exe: No module named pip
I restarted Spyder, Win10, nothing helps.
How to fix it?
Thanks.
(Spyder maintainer here) We don't provide pip in our Windows app to prevent people breaking Spyder by installing any kind of packages with it.
The best way to use other packages that don't come with our app is to install Miniconda, create a conda environment after that with the packages you want to use and spyder-kernels, and finally connect Spyder to that env.
If you have python 3.4+ then pip should be installed with python.
To check that, you can run
pip help
in your windows command line.
However, if it isn't the case then download the get-pip.py file and run
python get-pip.py
and the pip installation should start. You can use pip help to verify this.
Another source of the problem might be that pip isn't listed in your PATH variables and thus isn't recognized by your command line.

Spyder failing to launch - “could not find or load the Qt platform plugin windows”

I've recently had to do a fresh install of windows and reinstall all the software I was previously using including anaconda.
I still have all the data from before the reinstall. To save me from pip installing all the packages I was using, I thought it would be easier to copy and paste the environment info from pre windows reinstall (left image) into the environment folder of the freshly installed anaconda (right).(Information/Folders in question)
I'm getting this error message when I try to launch Spyder.
Juypter notebook seems to be working fine but I get the error shown when I attempt to launch Sypder in the 'imported environment' TensorFlow1.8CPU.
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this?
I'm also open to hear any other ways of importing the environment from pre windows install anaconda folder.
I solved this problem by installing spyder with a lower version.

How to start Spyder in Linux Enthought Canopy

I have installed Enthought Canopy v-2.1.6 and downloaded Spyder v-2.3.8-8 with the Canopy Package Manager. There were no warning or error messages during the installation, but I can figure out how to start Spyder
I'm running Windows 10, not Linux. But after reading this question I installed Spyder via the package manager and tried to run it. I ended up finding the "spyderlib" folder in the site-packages directory and pulled the file spyder.py into the editor. Running it launched Spyder.
I know it has been a while since the question was posted, but I hope this helps somebody.
