if you will run anaconda prompt as administrator it will solve the error. I was facing the same problem it solved when I ran the prompt as administrator

You should be able to solve this problem by running the command as an administrator:

Press Win -> type "cmd" -> right-click onto "Command Prompt" -> Select "Run as Administrator" -> Enter the command again

An alternative would be to install Anaconda into your user's folder "C:\users\\Anaconda". Writing to files withing "C:\ProgramData" usually requires administrator priviledges, writing to your user's folder does not.
