Anaconda: Failed to create process. Invoke-Expression : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Command' because it is an empty string - anaconda

My anaconda navigator has been working fine until I installed Spyder. Now, I am unable to open Anaconda Navigator and when I open up Anaconda Prompt, I kept getting the error shown in the image below. Everytime I enter something into the prompt, it throws me the same error, "Failed to create process. Invoke-Expression: Cannot bind argument to parameter "Command" because it is an empty string". As I have other environments in Anaconda, I don't want to reinstall Anaconda, unless it is really necessary.
Hope that someone can advise. Thank you.

anaconda not opening it's just loading

i am trying to open anaconda but it's only showing logo for some time then it closes. I Also update conda ,anaconda-navigator ,navigator-updater and i also reset it through anaconda prompt but it's not working for me.
when i type anaconda-navigator in command prompt then it showing error with status code 522 as you shown it below .
C:\Users\user>anaconda-navigator
2022-02-24 11:50:41,848 - ERROR ads._log_errors:23
Tried to load advertisement image from https://optimise2.assets-servd.host/voracious-blesbok/production/api/navigator/Navigator-Commercialv6.png?w=315&auto=compress%2Cformat&fit=crop&dm=1643727003&s=77c3c1e618c897e6f1b9081f29103c53. Data is not fetched with status 522
I have also exactly the same problem. I removed anaconda (python 3.7) and reinstalled the Anaconda 3.9. It was good yesterday and worked with. Suddenly it stopped working and I figured out that I can only launch it by "run as administrator". I wanted to launch it from the anaconda prompt but I got the same error as you.
I had the same problem and fixed it by change charset from utf-8 to gbk in file launch.py
I accidentally found a workaround. I use a vpn client (pia vpn). Normally this is disabled when I'm programming. But I found that if I have activated vpn and call anaconda-navigator, it starts in a reasonable time. The error still appears but it looks like a timeout somewhere has been greatly shortened.

How can I resolve a package installation error in Julia on Windows?

I have just started using Julia on a Windows 10 machine, and I have been trying to install some very basic packages. When I use the Pkg.add() command, however, the command window returns the following error:
ERROR: SystemError: opening file C:\Users\username\.julia\environments\v1.0\Project.toml: Permission denied
The error message pops up even when using the Administrator mode. Any advice or tips would be appreciated! Thanks!
Delete .julia folder or set a new location for the JULIA_DEPOT_PATH.
Once done use a non-administrator account (the one you normally work with) to reinstall packages.

Can't open Jupyter notebook from command prompt

I have always opened the jupyter notebooks from the Anaconda prompt. The problem is that whenever I try to open the Jupyter notebook from the command prompt, the following error is displayed:
Picture of the Error shown on my command prompt window
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
What am I doing wrong ? What should I do?
Opening Jupyter Notebook from command prompt is useful, especially when you would like to open the Jupyter Notebook from a specific folder.
The following 2 steps might help you to resolve this issue.
open command prompt
activate base
The prompt might change to begin with "(base)", which is expected. Then type,
Jupyter-notebook
If Jupyter notebook opens up now, this means Jupyter is correctly installed within your conda environment. In OS like Windows 10, it was an expected behavior not to recognize Python outside of Conda environment, which extends to Jupyter Notebook as well.
If the 1st step works properly, then add the below paths to your
environment variable. If you would not like to add the path to your
system environment variable, you can choose to update in your
account environment variable.
In windows 10 >> search "environments" and "Edit environment
variables for your account"
Select "PATH" and edit.
Add below paths
C:\Users\\Anaconda3;
C:\Users\\Anaconda3\Scripts;
C:\Users\\Anaconda3\Lib;
C:\Users\\Anaconda3\Library\bin;
C:\Users\\Anaconda3\Library\mingw-w64\bin;
Now you should be able to open Jupyter Notebook directly from command prompt.

source conda environment to export QHOME, can't execute q command

I am trying to install kdb on the jupyter-notebook. First I download the 64-bit windows version on https://ondemand.kx.com/ and also download the licence in the email.
Then I open it using window command prompt. I set QHOME and PATH using the following code in command prompt:
setx QHOME "C:\q"
setx PATH "%PATH%;C:\q\w64"
exit
I can run q properly in windows command.
However, when I open Anaconda3 prompt, to run the q, by typing:
activate base
q
The error appears
python.exe: can't open file 'C:\Users\Cecil': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
My directory path in Anaconda is
(base) C:\Users\Cecil M>
And when I open the jupyter-book, the kernel is dead
Is there any step missing here. I have downloaded relative packages, such as kx kdb, kx embedpy, kx jupyterq.
I think the problem is caused by the space in your username.
The Anaconda KDB package is setting the variable QHOME to C:\Users\Cecil M\Anaconda3\q.
The script etc\conda\activate.d\kdb_activate.bat is run when anaconda starts and sets the QHOME variable. Adding quotes to this variable in the script might work, ie
#echo off
set OLD_QHOME=%QHOME%
set QHOME="%CONDA_PREFIX%\q"
If this fails, deleting the kdb_activate.bat script will stop QHOME from being reassigned when Anaconda is started and KDB should load as usual.
Hope this helps
There is a new package available that handles this error. You can install it from anaconda and therefore you don't need to manually change anything. The name of the packages are kdb-3.6-2018.10.23. You upgrade using the command below.
conda upgrade -c kx kdb
Hope this helps.
