Thanks for reporting, I think this is a duplicate of #5717
Indeed. There is also a small chance it is slightly different, in that it may be looking in the wrong user profile directory—on Windows, Administrator
is the name of the build-in administrator account, not a normal user. Or, it could be due to not being able to create the file in that folder due to permissions issues. @hedeqing What's your user name/user folder path? Does the file (or the .spyder-py3 directory) exist there? Did you try running spyder --reset
from the Anaconda prompt? If that doesn't fix it, did you try uninstalling/reinstalling, for just you as a normal user?
I think we should merge this one with #5717. I think the problem here is installing Anaconda as admin in one drive and trying to use it with a user in another.
