I'm using Anaconda version 5.1 on Windows 7 (64bit).

I have tried to update conda from 4.4.10-py36_0 to 4.4.11-py36_0 but cannot and got error message

(base) C:\Windows\system32>conda update -n base conda Solving environment: done

Package Plan

environment location: C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3

The following packages will be downloaded:
