Package inconsistencies

Product Help Packages & Environments
1

I am currently getting this error:

ImportError: Pandas requires version ‘3.1.0’ or newer of ‘openpyxl’ (version ‘3.0.10’ currently installed).

Hence, I wanted to update these packages. However, when I want to update or install a package (not only these but in general), I am getting this error:

The environment is inconsistent, please check the package plan carefully

I already tried to update conda as suggested by the message but I still get the same error.
I also tried the following, as suggested by other forums, but I still get the same error:

conda install anaconda
conda update --all

I am not quite sure how to continue. I would appreciate any help!
