Nice to meet you.
Thank you very much for the valuable information.
Even on Windows, you may be prompted to allow system changes when creating a new directory or installing a program.
Along with that, it probably happened.
Regards, you.

Hello,
I had installed Anaconda Navigator 2.1.1. at work and have the same problem mentioned by Robert Ball. Tick boxes of Python and R are not enabled hence I cannot select the version. Wondering how this problem was resolved.
If you have any information, kindly posting here would be highly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem. How to fix it?
I managed to create new env and activate it through anaconda command prompt, but in the navigator the fields are inactive - as shown in the first post.

Same Problem here Need Help
As I’ve just encountered the same problem: My solution by accident was waiting.
I’ve started researching the problem, found this thread, and when I switched back to Anaconda, the fields had been populated.
So maybe it was just an update problem and anaconda needs time to retrieve the current version of the packages?

Hey guys,
I had the same issue at work. To fix it, I set the proxy information. To do that:
- Open the menu File > Preferences
- Click on the button “Configure conda”
- Paste the text below:
channels:
- defaults
# Show channel URLs when displaying what is going to be downloaded and
# in 'conda list'. The default is False.
show_channel_urls: True
allow_other_channels: True
proxy_servers:
http: http://[email protected]:8080
https: http://[email protected]:8080
ssl_verify: False
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the tip. This is actually the way it worked for me. i had to wait 1 minute before the R or Python packages checkbox became available.
