Please feel free to vote "Reopen" at the bottom of this question. The reason is that I have marked this as a duplicate although the answers there are not clear enough for this question.

As soon as the question is reopened, I can add the the following answer: that cuDNN is an integrated part of the conda pytorch cudatoolkit installer and that it is listed together with pytorch, see py3.7_cuda102_cudnn7_0, and not as a stand-alone package that you might perhaps get by using pip or conda to install it explicitly (not recommended! See all answers of How to run pytorch with NVIDIA “cuda toolkit” version instead of the official conda “cudatoolkit” version?). With conda's cudatoolkit, cuDNN is automatically installed together with CUDA just for pytorch, and as a built-in package inside a conda package it does not show up.


I have installed pytorch using conda install pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10.2 -c pytorch.

https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/17445#issuecomment-466838819 says that cudNN is automatically included.

Trying to check the install according to How to get the CUDA version?, I used conda list cudnn to check, and it is not installed, even though cudNN is needed to use your gpu for ML, while conda list cuda works.

Here is the output of anaconda prompt of both commands.

(base) PS C:\Users\Admin> conda list cudnn
# packages in environment at C:\Users\Admin\anaconda3:
#
# Name                    Version                   Build  Channel
(base) PS C:\Users\Admin> conda list cuda
# packages in environment at C:\Users\Admin\anaconda3:
#
# Name                    Version                   Build  Channel
cudatoolkit               10.2.89              h74a9793_1

I find a 445 MB cudnn file "cudnn64_7.dll" in C:\Users\Admin\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\torch\lib, and there are some small files in C:\Users\Admin\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\torch\backends\cudnn and C:\Users\Admin\anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\torch\include\ATen.

Questions:

  • Is cudnn installed as a part of pytorch only?
  • Is there a way to get conda list cudnn to work?

  • What is the output of just `conda list` ? – AMC Jul 30 '20 at 21:29
  • This is marked as a duplicate since the answer there indirectly shows the answer for this answer here: that CUDA (and the same with cuDNN that is also part of the pytorch installer) are kept separate from the stand-alone installers. Pytorch is installed with its own dependencies. – questionto42 Aug 08 '20 at 10:23

You can try installing CuDNN explicitly by using conda install -c anaconda cudnn. Then conda list cudnn should show CuDNN.

  • The question is about another thing. Pytorch is running fine with what the conda command installs, and this is the recommended installation. "Anaconda is the recommended package manager as it will provide you all of the PyTorch dependencies in one, sandboxed install, including Python and pip.", see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63043585/vscode-showing-java-11-or-more-recent-is-required-to-run-please-download-and-i. If I installed cuDNN separately, it will be an additional version, not the one installed with pytorch. Else your answer would help of course. – questionto42 Aug 03 '20 at 14:31
