Conda install and update do not work also solving environment get errors

Question

I am using anaconda as below:

(base) C:\\Users\\xxx>conda info

     active environment : base
    active env location : C:\\Users\\xxx\\Documents\\ANACON         


        

Answer 1

I started running in to this problem when one package suggested following modifications before installation

conda config --set channel_priority true

so I just reverted it and voila error's gone

conda config --set channel_priority false
