Hi I'm trying to install TensorFlow for MAC M1 Chip OS 12.0. Post installing the application and trying to install numpy and Jupiter notebook using the below command

conda install notebook - y

conda install -c conda-forge numpy -y

I get the error

Unable to create environments file. Path not writable.
  environment location: /Users/ren/.conda/environments.txt

done
Executing transaction: | WARNING conda.core.envs_manager:register_env(50): Unable to register environment. Path not writable or missing.
  environment location: /Users/ren/miniforge3
  registry file: /Users/ren/.conda/environments.txt

I went to the folder and changed the permissions of the file manually it did not work

I ran the command 775 /.conda/ from the terminal it did not work. I removed all the folders for anaconda and Miniforge multiple times I get the same error.

Any suggestions how to get this to work?

sudo chmod -R 775 /Users/Ren/.conda Worked for me after trying multiple solutions.

I solved this by manually chmoding the file path.

sudo chmod 775 /Users/michaelmoreno/.conda/environments.txt
