Can't Create a Conda environment using Pycharm

I am having difficulty with creating a new conda (Anaconda 3, python 3.7) environment using Pycharm (edition 2019.2.2.)

I have added the (hopefully) correct Conda.exe file (from Users\...\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe) as Conda executable, but the installer does not install the first package (pip-19.2.2) while creating the Conda environment.

Am I doing something wrong?

I have solved the problem with the help of Pycharms support team.

If you are also not able to create a conda environment in Pycharm, first try to run:

conda update python-libarchive-c

in the anaconda command prompt.

If this doesn't work and pycharm is still stuck while making a virtual environment, do the following:

Look into your log: in pycharm go to help -> show log in explorer.

For me PyCharm stumbled upon the following command:

C:\Users\\...\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe create -p C:\Users\\...\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\envs\Project_OpenPNM -y python=3.7

Try running this command directly in the anaconda prompt. Subsequently, activate your environment and add the python interpreter created directly as an excisting interpreter in pycharm.
