Accessing root in anaconda prompt for windows

I want to run scripts beginning with conda command. But I get the following error:

Preparing transaction: done
Verifying transaction: failed

NotWritableError: The current user does not have write permissions to a required
 path.
  path: c:\C:\Users\SMA.D\.conda\environments.txt

As can be seen the first part of the path comes with an extra c:\. How can I access the root and run my commands from there in windows.

Know the command line is somthing like this:

(base) c:\conda create -n hw1 python=3.6

I can't even change the installed python version due to this error.

Anaconda is attempting to write to c:\C:\Users\SMA.D\.conda\environments.txt - this needs to be reconfigured, specifically, c:\C:\ should be changed to C:\
