how to find and install PyVisa with AnacondaNavigator for python3.5 on W10-64b?

Question

The Anaconda Navigator documentation doesnt tell how to do it. Earlier i have used python2.7 where it was easy to install PyVisa1.4, but at the moment I am screwed with Anaconda. I installed Python3.5 together with Anaconda4.1-64bit, and the documentation says that the Navigator is used to find and install packages but I used several hours to find PyVisa1.8 and still dont know.

Answer 1

For some reason pyvisa does not seem to be accessible from Anaconda Navigator. To install it you need to open your environment in the terminal:

Then issue this command to install pyvisa from the official Conda-Forge Package Library:

conda install -c conda-forge pyvisa

Answer 2

I struggled with this issue aswell. Finally i solved it with another work around.. I opend a terminal over the anaconda navigator in the environment where i want the package. Then i used pip. Just type in: pip install pyvisa
