Error installing packages using conda command-CodePudding

I have Python 3.10 and I installed Anaconda 3 today. I would like to install packages by Anaconda prompt, and I do the following for example:

conda install fiona

However, the following error appears:

conda is not recognized as an internal command

How to adjust this?

If I do pip install fiona, then it works.

What could be this error of not working the command conda. My system is Windows.

CodePudding user response：

You have to add conda to your environment path. Otherwise your terminal/commmand prompt won't recognize the conda command straight away. You can check how to set environment variables and save them in your operating system here.

You need to add Anaconda to PATH. In my case, anaconda installed into C:\Anaconda3. I added C:\Anaconda3 and C:\Anaconda3\Scripts\ to my path variable. Set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Anaconda3;C:\Anaconda3\Scripts\
