Answers:

  1. First thing you do is check for updates in your Anaconda. If available, do that.

  2. If it still doesn’t work, create env from command prompt instead, using the command

    conda create --name xyz_env python=3.8
    
  3. If it says SSL error set verify to False. Use command

    conda config --set ssl_verify False 
    

    Now, create your env, using command

    conda create --name xyz_env python=3.8
