Same error for me. Not SSL error. I see that https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/win-64 has repodata.json however anaconda update is looking for current_repodata.json

The link forrestwaters shared does not have a solution for this :-(

vraghuvamshi on 20 Apr 2020

Never mind. I found the solution in another thread. Copying here so it helps anyone else who lands up here:

D:\Anaconda3\DLLs_ssl.pyd search for the OpenSSL DLLs but in the wrong/current location!
As they are not found the search goes to C:\Windows\System32 where we have the same DLLs, installed by an other application, but with a different version. :-(

The DLLs delivered by Anaconda3 are located here:
D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin

My workaround:
I have copied the following files

libcrypto-1_1-x64.*
libssl-1_1-x64.*
from D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin to D:\Anaconda3\DLLs.

And it works as a charm!

Hi everyone.
@vraghuvamshi I tried your solution but the problem continues in my case.
I'm trying to create a new environment and installing the packages that I need.

I'm launching the anaconda power shell, directly from anaconda navigator, so I'm here
(base) C:\Users\myuser>

I'm typing:

I have the same error message than @12avnisharma

Also I tried to install a library on the base environment

and this appears (repeated 5 times)
WARNING: Retrying (Retry(total=4, connect=None, read=None, redirect=None, status=None)) after connection broken by 'NewConnectionError(': Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 11001] getaddrinfo failed')': /simple/opencv-python/

ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement opencv-python (from versions: none)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for opencv-python

I don't know what to do.
I checked the URL on a web browser (https://repo.anaconda.com/pkgs/main/win-64/current_repodata.json) and I have no problem.

I have to say that I'm working on a server, I installed Anaconda con a Windows server 2019 machine

kapilg007 on 16 Jul 2020

For windows10 m/c If you are having this error , I recommend using the Anaconda/Miniconda Command promt that you can find under start->Anaconda->Anaconda promt . It makes it easy for handling conda packages . It truly worked for me and it is much more simpler solution also .

here is the reason - https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/troubleshooting.html#condahttperror-http-000-connection-failed . Read the cause part .
Thank you .

None of the above solutions worked in my case.

I was going to uninstall the Anaconda but as a final solution, I took a look at .condarc file (it is located at C:\Users\username).
In that file, I removed the line channel_priority: strict and reopened Anaconda prompt, and it really did work as a charm.

I tried the solution listed by @vraghuvamshi; it didn't work (but the post was still super helpful) as I saw the DLLS mentioned in that post were from a previous install. (Note that I had used the Windows Uninstall functionality to remove prior version). I consequently uninstalled again (from Windows Control Panel and then ensured that the folder was deleted (I can't remember if it deleted or not). Re-installed and all working okay.

Hi Everyone, i had received this error after installing Anaconda3 and installing RStudio (for that matter any packages). copying the following files didnt work for me.
_libcrypto-1_1-x64.*
libssl-1_1-x64.*
from D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin to D:\Anaconda3\DLLs._
I was verifying the current status of SSL :
_>conda config --describe ssl_verify
-## ssl_verify (bool, str)
-## aliases: verify_ssl
-## Conda verifies SSL certificates for HTTPS requests, just like a web
-## browser. By default, SSL verification is enabled, and conda operations
-## will fail if a required url's certificate cannot be verified. Setting
-## ssl_verify to False disables certification verification. The value for
-## ssl_verify can also be (1) a path to a CA bundle file, or (2) a path
-## to a directory containing certificates of trusted CA.
-##
-## ssl_verify: true_

Then ran
_>conda config --set ssl_verify false_ (_after reading thoroughly the note from https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/troubleshooting.html#condahttperror-http-000-connection-failed_)

same here but it that can happen, when you are behind a proxy server etc., e.g. see #6007.
Eventually, I found https://stackoverflow.com/a/35804869/4442591 plus https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61635505/installing-zscaler-certificate-to-anaconda3
