How to delete a conda environment

Question

I created a conda environment without specifying the Python version. By default, it selected 3.13 and now I want to install CatBoost which does not support Python 3.13. How can I delete the existing conda environment to install Python 3.12? Any command?

Answer 1

To delete a Conda environment, you can use the "conda env remove" command. 

Here is an example:

conda env remove --name YOUR_ENV_NAME

Replace YOUR_ENV_NAME with the name of the environment you want to delete.

Once the above command is executed, you can list the environments to confirm that the environment has been removed using the following command:

conda env list
