Trying to create a virtual environment using conda but I get an error

WARNING conda.exceptions:print_unexpected_error_report(1216): KeyError('pkgs_dirs') Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\exceptions.py", line 1082, in call return func(*args, **kwargs) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\cli\main.py", line 87, in _main exit_code = do_call(args, p) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\cli\conda_argparse.py", line 84, in do_call return getattr(module, func_name)(args, parser) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\cli\main_create.py", line 21, in execute if is_conda_environment(context.target_prefix): File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\base\context.py", line 591, in target_prefix return determine_target_prefix(self) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\base\context.py", line 1738, in determine_target_prefix return locate_prefix_by_name(prefix_name) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\base\context.py", line 1681, in locate_prefix_by_name envs_dirs = context.envs_dirs File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\base\context.py", line 517, in envs_dirs return mockable_context_envs_dirs(self.root_writable, self.root_prefix, self._envs_dirs) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda\base\context.py", line 91, in mockable_context_envs_dirs fixed_dirs += join(user_data_dir(APP_NAME, APP_NAME), 'envs'), File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda_vendor\appdirs.py", line 67, in user_data_dir path = os.path.join(_get_win_folder(const), appauthor, appname) File "C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\lib\site-packages\conda_vendor\appdirs.py", line 284, in _get_win_folder_with_pywin32 from win32com.shell import shellcon, shell ImportError: DLL load failed while importing shell: The specified procedure could not be found.

environment variables: conda info could not be constructed. KeyError('pkgs_dirs')

An unexpected error has occurred. Conda has prepared the above report.

If submitted, this report will be used by core maintainers to improve future releases of conda. Would you like conda to send this report to the core maintainers?

[y/N]: y Upload successful.

Thank you for helping to improve conda. Opt-in to always sending reports (and not see this message again) by running

$ conda config --set report_errors true

I keep getting this error. I tried conda info and it gives this error as well. Tried conda config --show-sources and it doesn't return anything.

I googled the pertinent part of the error and found this GitHub issue, where apparently downgrading the version of pywin32 you have installed could help:

pip install --upgrade pywin32==228
