hello everyone ！After updating anacoda, when I tried to open Navigator on my computer, it didn’t respond. When I use promt to open Navigator, I receive the following error message:
(base) C:\WINDOWS\system32>anaconda-navigator
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Scripts\anaconda-navigator-script.py”, line 10, in

(result, consumed) = self._buffer_decode(data, self.errors, final)
UnicodeDecodeError: ‘utf-8’ codec can’t decode byte 0xb3 in position 619: invalid start byte.
How can I solve this problem？
I would say google is gonna be your best friend. I posted a similar problem and didn’t get much help. If you don’t need anaconda navigator specifically, you can try opening up any of the other apps if you have then installed (spyder, jupyter notebook, etc). I can get a few of the apps to work but navigator will not open. Good luck, if you do find a solution please come back and post it.
All of a sudden the Anaconda Navigator would not open on my Win 10 PC. Icon was no longer in Windows Start and it did not respond on Task Bar. I clicked it and it did nothing. It still shows in Control Panel Programs. I believe that the Windows 10 OS was responsible for this issue. The Win 10 User folder with Anaconda had all the files Hidden under the folder Properties. I also have Anaconda on Win 7 PC and it is working fine and the User folder is not Hidden. In Win 10 I accessed the folder with Anaconda, went to Properties, and un-checked the box for Hidden files. Now my Anaconda loads properly as it did before. Glad to have Win 7 for comparison.
