Install Anaconda 3 python 3.6 version in Windows 10

I learned that there are some issues in the latest Anaconda 3 python 3.7 version for object detection and face recognition deep learning problems from various posts. The official Anaconda site is only providing the latest python 3.7 version here. I want to work on a similar deep learning project in Windows 10(64 bit) which requires Anaconda 3 with python 3.6 version.

I found several posts providing solutions on StackOverflow for a Linux environment but I could not find any solution for the Windows 10 operating system. Can anyone share with me how to download the Anaconda 3 python 3.6 version?.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Recommendation: Learn how to use conda by reading get started with conda. The problem you encounter is a very common case could be solved by conda, as an environment manager.

Solution 1

Use an environment with Python 3.6 installed, and activate this environment each time to work with your project.

# create an environment with python 3.6
conda create -n py36 python=3.6

# activate this environment
conda activate py36

This is also the preferred way to work with different projects. One environment for one project.

Solution 2

The default environment you're using with conda is base. You can override the Python 3.7 within base with Python 3.6

conda install -n base python=3.6
