Anaconda navigator VERY slow

Question

My anaconda navigator takes 2-3 minutes to start...Did anyone else notice this problem? I have proxy setting set correctly and I can use conda install with no problem...

Answer 1

*This worked like magic especially if you are using a machine with vpn enabled & proxy If you know the specific app you are running e.g R, Jupyter e.t.c just simply:

1. Go to the Windows search button
2. Type the name e.g Jupyter
   3. Click on it and it opens the notepad!
