When I look at environments it says there are no environments listed so i can not create a new one in order to install tensor flow. is there another method? can someone please tell me how? I have a tensorflow project and can’t figure this out! please help
Hello Carolyn,
If you are needing to create a new environment for your project, you can do so via the Command Line Terminal with conda CLI or with Anaconda Navigator.
If you want to make a new environment in your terminal. You will need to enter in the following command below:
# Replace <ENV_NAME> with a name for your environment
conda create -n <ENV_NAME>
Once the environment is created, you will need to activate it to change environments with the command below:
# Replace <ENV_NAME> with the name of the environment you want to activate
conda activate <ENV_NAME>
This will place you in the new anaconda environment you created. For more information about Navigator environment creation, I will include a support article below with this additional information.
