How update/remove conda-forge channel from Anaconda?

Also you can also check

http://conda-forge.org/docs/user/tipsandtricks.html#using-multiple-channels

To see your channels' priorities $conda config --describe channel_priority


You can use:

conda config --show channels

This will list your channels

conda config --remove channels NOT_WANTED

This will remove the channel called NOT_WANTED(Assuming that it is part of your list e.g. your confa-forge)

BTW, I will recommend --append channel insteading of --add adding them

conda config --append channels CHANNEL_NAME

Why: If you do:

conda config --add channels conda-forge 

This will make conda-forge first hit channel. Your anaconda's default channel will get lower priority. Some of your packages will start updating to conda-forge.

Instead, do this:

conda config --append channels conda-forge

This keeps your default channel high in priority. Packages will be searched on your default before going to conda-forge :)
