When installing Anaconda3 2018.12 (64-bit) on Windows 10, I'm getting an error indicating that the file path has a space in the name ('Program Files' directory on my C: drive), and that some Conda packages may have problems with this if I continue.



Does anyone know specifically which packages may have a problem? I'm using Python primarily for data science (SciPy/NumPy, Pandas, etc.).



See link for a screenshot of the warning.

    It is strange this is the case because if you were to install Anaconda using the Visual Studio installer it installs just fine. I realized after I submitted this comment that the Visual Studio might be putting Anaconda in a directory without space.

  • Anyways....Anaconda developers are not even clear on the reasons. here and here. They say it will work but "other supported stuff that Anaconda supports" might have problems.

  • @onhamae Just my two cents but I would take the hint. Not with Anaconda particularly (so I couldn't say which packages for that environment exhibit the issue) but I have certainly encountered "cross-platform" Python packages that throw unresolvable errors over "spaces". Even "vanilla" Python installs itself outside "Program Files" by default on Windows, in a directory without spaces.

  • Thank you both. I did take the advice of the warning (against my desire to maintain organization on my hard drive), but was simply curious if anyone had specifics on the reason. I can't afford the potential problem at the moment.
