I am using anaconda with python 2.7 for the last year. Today, when I tried to open Spyder I got the error 'pythonw.exe has stopped working'.
Expected Behavior
Yesterday I used python normally and I did not change anything that could explain what happens today. So I would expect Spyder to launch!
Steps to Reproduce
Well, just by clicking on anaconda navigator or spyder..
Anaconda or Miniconda version:
conda version : 4.5.4
Operating System:
Windows 10
What I have tried:
After reading some related posts I run in Anaconda command prompt these:
conda update conda
conda update anaconda
conda update anaconda-navigator
Then, I restarted my computer but nothing has changed. Same problem. Python has stopped working. Maybe worth to mention that I have another anaconda environment with Python 3 but I don't want to use that because all the libraries I installed the last year are in the anaconda environment with Python 2.7.
