How to activate environments in anaconda by default?

767 Views Asked by At

Everytime when I want to create an environment using Anaconda Navigator, the 'create' button is greyed out as shown in figure. So using Anaconda prompt, I created the environment using the below commands.

conda create --name myenv
conda activate myenv

enter image description here

Everytime I open Anaconda-navigator, these newly created environments are greying out and I need to activate this manually through command prompt. For example, before opening anaconda-navigator, I had to manually activate myenv tensorflow. Is spite of this, even the buttons are disabled. Is there a default setting to set such that these environments are already activated? Also, why are these buttons 'create,clone,delete' greyed out?

Try closing Navigator, opening a terminal in your base environment and updating Navigator

conda update anaconda-navigator

That worked for me.
