Anaconda Navigator does not update packages

问题

I'm trying to update my environment through Anaconda Navigator. But it fails to update some packages. As you can see, the Apply button is inactive and there is a message saying "Package is already installed" but the package is still in Updatable page. Also, Spyder tells me to update nbconvert at each start.

I tried:

conda update conda
conda update anaconda-navigator
conda update navigator-updater
conda update --all -y

But still these packages are in Updatable list.

This is the conda info output:

How can I solve this?

回答1:

The solution I found to work is the alternative method found on the anaconda site.

In the terminal type:

conda deactivate

followed by:

conda update anaconda-navigator

Other solutions updated the packages but not Anaconda Navigator itself. In your case, it seems the issue might have been not deactivating first.

回答2:

Got the similar problem. Solved by command line "conda update anaconda" in line with Anaconda Troubleshooting

回答3:

In anaconda navigator:

right click on the package
then select specific function
then apply.

The problem should be resolved by now.
