problem: I have created a python virtual env and typed spyder. when i hit enter it does not open and do'nt even show any error.
previously it was working fine. I have tried these things 1.updating conda and spyder (nothing happens) 2. I am able to open it outside of virtual env

I had the same problem: Spyder fails to start without any error given. For me the problem surfaced after I installed some new packages from conda-forge, one of them matplotlib
. When I installed matplotlib from the regular conda channels, the problem went away.
conda install matplotlib
Solving environment: done
