Windows 10: conda install command doesn't work

[eddex]

I tried the command suggested in the readme:

> conda install pytorch torchvision -c python
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): done
Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

  - torchvision

Current channels:

  - https://conda.anaconda.org/python/win-64
  - https://conda.anaconda.org/python/noarch
  - https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/win-64

To search for alternate channels that may provide the conda package you're
looking for, navigate to

    https://anaconda.org

and use the search bar at the top of the page.

Following the advice from the error message, I searched for the package on anaconda.org: https://anaconda.org/pytorch/torchvision

Using the command suggested by anaconda.org solved the problem:

> conda install -c pytorch torchvision

Try:

conda install pytorch torchvision cudatoolkit=10.2 -c pytorch

Before that make sure conda is up to date by running:

conda update conda

If you're using Anaconda, open your Anaconda Prompt as administrator. Then, visit https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/ to get the appropriate conda install command for your system. Run this command from the Anaconda Prompt and it should work.
