Update Conda from command line

From time to time generally it’s good to update Conda from Command Prompt / Terminal. Conda itself will remind the user to do this.

conda update -n base -c defaults conda

If it’s been a long time since updating, sometimes instead of updating conda, conda just repeats than an update is available and finally # All requested packages already installed. To workaround this issue, do a complete conda update by:

conda update -n base conda --all

After this, purge old package install info by:

conda clean --all
