Anaconda Navigator does not update packages

I'm trying to update my environment through Anaconda Navigator. But it fails to update some packages. As you can see, the Apply button is inactive and there is a message saying "Package is already installed" but the package is still in Updatable page. Also, Spyder tells me to update nbconvert at each start.

Error message

I tried:

But still these packages are in Updatable list.

This is the conda info output:

How can I solve this?

What anurag said worked for me but I'll explain it differently.

I left clicked on the package name and then at the bottom I could choose which package I wanted to update. I chose the latest and then it updated. For some reason the commands "conda update anaconda" and "conda update python" didn't see the latest and update my version. It only tried to update the installed version.

The solution I found to work is the alternative method found on the anaconda site.

In the terminal type:

conda deactivate

followed by:

conda update anaconda-navigator

Other solutions updated the packages but not Anaconda Navigator itself. In your case, it seems the issue might have been not deactivating first.

In anaconda navigator:

  1. right click on the package
  2. then select specific function
  3. then apply.

The problem should be resolved by now.
