Reinstall conda and packages from scratch

I have my conda corrupted due to pip install. After manipulations, I end up having 2 Python 2.7 interprete in the same conda root env.....

I have other conda env. safe and intact. How to re-isntall the default root env in a clean way ? I have exported the packages by :

conda list --explicit > spec-file.txt   
conda create --name myenv --file spec-file.txt     # Create Env using a file

Here are instructions build your Conda environment from the scratch.

To see what Conda environments you have:

conda env list

Remove your environment by name:

conda deactivate
conda env remove -n $myenv

Then create it again:

conda create -n $myenv
conda activate $myenv

Then proceed to reinstall all packages.

Solution :

1) reinstall minconda in a new folder 2) Remove duplicates in spec-file.txt 2) create new conda env using the spec-file.txt

Cleaner and better way I found.... (also backing up the conda folder is also a good solution)
