I know this question is frequently asked, but none of the answers solved my problem.

I use VS code for bunch of things : Python, html css javascript php, Ruby etc. I use anaconda for Python. However, I can only run python with anaconda when I open VS code by the anaconda navigator.

I tried the to do the same thing as it automatically does with anaconda navigator : Setting the same interpreter, the good language etc. But when I try conda activate base (which is automatically written with anaconda and works), it gives me an error. It's not an huge problem, but it's just annoying to open anaconda everytime. What should I do ?

CodePudding user response：

make sure you have your anaconda path added to the windows path.

to add anaconda to the windows path follow this:

1. search "environment" in windows search.

2. click on "environment variables"

3. in the system variables area. look for "path" variable. select it and click on edit.

4. add the following (make sure the addresses are correct in your case first).

if you do not know where is anaconda installed on your PC. open cmd from anaconda navigator and write "where conda"
