Conda install taking too long

Viewed 8632

I had Anaconda and conda installed on my machine before, but deleted the .bash_profile conda script in my ~/.bash_profile. Then, I deleted the anaconda navigator, and the entire anaconda3 directory from /opt/anaconda3.

Then installed the anaconda navigator and conda again, but they came with python 3.8 installed. I wanted to downgrade Python to 3.7.4, so I run the following command: (in the base env) conda install python=3.7.4.

It has been stuck in Solving Environment for about 10 minutes or so, and I don't know what to do.

I had similar problem in Anaconda 4.10.3 and was fixed by creating a new environment, as suggested by @Paul H. Thanks.
