How to resolve Anaconda installation getting stuck while installing VSCode?
If Anaconda gets stuck while installing VSCode, you can try the following troubleshooting methods:
- Make sure your internet connection is stable. Check if the network connection is working properly as having a good internet connection can ensure a smooth installation process.
- Close other programs that are using a lot of resources. Shutting down other running programs, especially ones that are consuming a considerable amount of memory or processor resources, can free up system resources and speed up the installation process.
- Reboot the computer. Sometimes, rebooting the computer can solve some unexplainable issues, including when a program gets stuck during installation.
- Try installing using Anaconda Navigator. If you encounter any issues installing VSCode through Anaconda Navigator, you can try installing it using Anaconda Prompt (or Terminal) by running the following command.
- Install Visual Studio Code from the Anaconda channel.
- This will install VSCode using Anaconda’s package manager.
- Download and install the setup program from the official website of VSCode. If you encounter issues with Anaconda installation of VSCode, try downloading and installing the setup program from the official website (https://code.visualstudio.com/).
If the above methods do not solve the problem, it is recommended to seek help in the Anaconda or VSCode community for more professional support.
