Install error OPENSSL_Applink

I uninstalled an old installation of Anaconda, and now when I try to install Anaconda or Miniconda I get this error . I have tried:

  1. Running as administrator
  2. Restarting my computer
  3. Manually deleting everything anaconda I could find
  4. manually installing OpenSSL in the Windows directory and in the OpenSSL /bin.
  5. Installing system wide and per user.
  6. Installing a different version
  7. I even reinstalled Windows (not a fresh install, I’m not going that far).

It worked fine before as far as I know, but I hadn’t ran it in a while. Please let me know if any more details are necessary. I’d really like to get this resolved.

I had this same issue. I uninstalled my python and deleted the incomplete miniconda folder, and then ran the installer again and it worked.
