python – Struggling to install pandas_datareader with conda install

admin

I’m trying to install pandas_datareader through conda install but having no luck. Each time I get the error message:

ERROR conda.core.link:_execute_actions(337): An error occurred while installing package 'conda-forge::charset-normalizer-2.1.1-pyhd8ed1ab_0'.
CondaError: Cannot link a source that does not exist. C:\Users\Euan Ritchie\Anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe
Running `conda clean --packages` may resolve your problem.
Attempting to roll back.

CondaError: Cannot link a source that does not exist. C:\Users\Euan Ritchie\Anaconda3\Scripts\conda.exe
Running `conda clean --packages` may resolve your problem.

This is after the following commands run in the Anaconda prompt:

anaconda search -t conda pandas_datareader
anaconda show delichon/pandas_datareader
conda install --channel https://conda.anaconda.org/delichon pandas_datareader

I then do what it suggests (ran conda clean --packages), then restarted the prompt, but then got the same error message.

I’d greatly appreciate any help. Conda version is 4.3.30 and python version is 3.6.1.final.0 if this is helpful.
