Hi William, Are you trying to only install via the UI? Have you tried installing from the command line?

I also have the same issue and I'm on version 2.6.0. When it asks to install 2.6.1, I click yes, give it admin permission, and then nothing happens. I'll try to update it using the anaconda cmd, do I use "conda update -n base conda"?

First update the conda package manager to the latest version in your base environment conda update -n base conda

Then use conda to update Navigator in your base environment conda update -n base anaconda-navigator

Check conda list to make sure you see anaconda-navigator version as 2.6.1

That did it for me, thank you! I'll remember this in the future if it happens again.
