Had similar issue. The user path variable was messed up. Please check and resolve.
In my case, %PY_HOME% had quotes which had issues while getting resolved. Removed them.
Earlier it has quotes around variable %PY_HOME%.
To verify I did invoke anaconda power shell and it started clean later on (initially it will throw errors in command prompt).
