I am not able to launch Anaconda Navigator even after updating all the packages. When I click the Anaconda Navigator icon or type anaconda-navigator in anaconda prompt, it just shows initializing but doesn't launch. It is neither launching or giving me an error.

I've also tried the solutions here and here and also these GitHub issues - this and this and the problem still persists.

SPECS:

OS: Windows 11 Pro

Conda version: conda 4.13.0

Python version: Python 3.9.12

I also noticed that if I try launching anaconda-navigator with wifi connection, it doesn't launch as described above but I get this error if I try launching without wifi

Had a similar issue, can you try

conda clean --packages && conda clean --all && conda update --all

Fixed it for me, referring to the open issue here.

I resolved this by deleting the .condarc file located at C:\Users... And then restarting my PC

Runing the Commands Ahana Deb suggested resolved it for me, in the following sequence:

conda clean --packages
conda clean --all
conda update --all

After update completed, I ran anaconda-navigator.exe, issue resolved.
