conda install pyPDF2 broke pandas #1160

I'm using Microsoft Windows version 6.1.7601 which I believe is Windows 7... I installed pypdf2 using the command below: conda install -c conda-forge pypdf2=1.26.0 Everything installed correctly (I remeber it updated conda or anaconda) and I closed the command prompt. I ran my program that I'm working on and got the following error error_1 I tried to use the last answer on this page and point the PYTHONPATH to the anaconda Python directory, but no dice. I'm at a loss. I can't even uninstall pandas. I use pandas for everything and now it's broken.

Copied from original issue: conda/conda#3637

@tmcewen Please consider upgrading to Anaconda 4.2.

conda update conda
conda update anaconda

Anaconda 2.3.0 is rather old.

Please update this issue if your problem resolves :)

tmcewen commented 7 years ago 
conda update conda
conda update anaconda

Both of these commands give the failure below... how do I go about updating conda? Do I have to completely uninstall and reinstall? error2
