- Log on to your SAIL desktop.
- Click on the Start menu (the little Windows icon on the bottom left) → Anaconda3 (64-bit) → Anaconda Prompt (Anaconda3). This will open a command line window with a line of text like:
- (base) C:\Users\<your username will be here>
- Now we need to make an environment to use. In this command line window, type the following and then hit 'Enter':
conda create -p P:\<your username here>\<name of your new environment> –-channel=anaconda --channel=conda-forge nb_conda_kernels pandas numpy jupyterlab- For example, if my username is 'leal' and I want to create an environment called 'mynewenv' in a folder called 'conda-envs', the command I would run would be:
conda create -p P:\leal\conda-envs\mynewenv –-channel=anaconda --channel=conda-forge nb_conda_kernels pandas numpy jupyterlab
- Wait a little while until the window asks you whether to proceed - hit 'y' on your keyboard and then press 'Enter'.
- Wait while your new environment is created and all requested packages are installed.
- You might get a pop-up saying, '"this app has been blocked by your system administrator, " this is fine, and it all still worked. Just click 'Close' on the message.
- After your environment is created, you need to activate it by typing the following in the same command line window:
conda activate P:\<your username here>\<name of your new environment>- So, if my username is 'leal' and I created an environment called 'mynewenv' in a folder called 'conda-envs', I would use the command:
conda activate P:\leal\conda-envs\mynewenv
- Congratulations, you can now move on to the next part of the guide.
