Installation of Anaconda for Python on Local Machine

Installing on Windows

  1. Download the installer:

  2. Verify your installer hashes.

  3. Double-click the .exe file.

  4. Follow the instructions on the screen.

    If you are unsure about any setting, accept the defaults. You can change them later.

    When installation is finished, from the Start menu, open the Anaconda Prompt.

  5. Test your installation. In your terminal window or Anaconda Prompt, run the command conda list. A list of installed packages appears if it has been installed correctly.

Installing in silent mode

Note

The following instructions are for Miniconda. For Anaconda, substitute Anaconda for Miniconda in all of the commands.

To run the the Windows installer for Miniconda in silent mode, use the /S argument. The following optional arguments are supported:

  • /InstallationType=[JustMe|AllUsers]—Default is JustMe.

  • /AddToPath=[0|1]—Default is 0

  • /RegisterPython=[0|1]—Make this the system’s default Python. 0 indicates JustMe, which is the default. 1 indicates AllUsers.

  • /S—Install in silent mode.

  • /D=<installation path>—Destination installation path. Must be the last argument. Do not wrap in quotation marks. Required if you use /S.

All arguments are case-sensitive.

EXAMPLE: The following command installs Miniconda for the current user without registering Python as the system’s default:

start /wait "" Miniconda3-latest-Windows-x86_64.exe /InstallationType=JustMe /RegisterPython=0 /S /D=%UserProfile%\Miniconda3
