Try to run

conda update setuptools

to see if that fixes your error.

[bucricket]

Running conda update setuptools didn’t seem to fix the problem. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Spyder and I get the same error.

Closing as there's nothing we can do about this one in our side, sorry.

[juliennyambal]

Hi everyone and hope that this would help.
I couldn't open spyder without sudo command. You should try
spyder --show-console

My last line was:
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/julien/.spyder2/.ropeproject/config.py' and some other files. Those files were only available to the root user. You should just remove the root privileges from each file that is blocking spyder from starting and you are ready to go.

(I have used nautilus)

[Peyman87]

I ran this "pip install --upgrade spyder" in "Anaconda prompt" and then used "spyder --show-console" and it worked.

[Gabrielvon]

Hi.
I came across same issue. I tried spyder --show-console and it show same error. And I also tried all solutions mentioned up to my post, all of them don't work for my situations.

[Pechi77]

spyder show cons

spyder show-console gives

Spyder is already running. If you want to open a new
instance, please pass to it the --new-instance option

but still I am getting spyder crashed during last session. pls help

[HomaiRS]

I have the exact same issue, please help....

1. I got the same error "spyder crashed during the last session".
2. I did "spyder --show-console", and it did not solve the error.
3. Then I did "pip install --upgrade spyder" in mac terminal.
4. Then again "spyder --show-console".

BUT still I get the "spyder crashed during the last session" error :(((.... I appreciate any comment or feedback.

[ccordoba12]

Look for a file called spyder_crash.log and remove it.

help i also experience the same problem:

@triggerhappy88, please remove this directory

C:\Users\asus\AppData\Roaming\Python

to fix your problem and avoid using pip to install packages that can be installed with conda in the future.

[triggerhappy88]

im not really sure what im doing, im not really good with these things, sorry. i just uninstalled anaconda which includes the spyder and jupyter notebook. im trying to reinstall anaconda right now

[triggerhappy88]

[triggerhappy88]

i cant see any AppData in C:\Users\asus\

[ccordoba12]

It's probably a hidden directory on Windows. So you need to remove it using the command prompt (cmd.exe).

@dalthviz, what's the command to remove directories on Windows?

[triggerhappy88]

[triggerhappy88]

i saw this one, do you think should i follow the above suggestion? I am not really sure where to type those "pip install ipython", "pip install spyder" and "spyder --reset", is it on ANaconda prompt or command prompt? :(

[dalthviz]

@ccordoba12 I think the command is rd and, for a recursive use, the flag is \S

[ccordoba12]

i saw this one, do you think should i follow the above suggestion?

No. Simply uninstall Anaconda, reinstall it and remove the directory I told you about with the command mentioned by @dalthviz in a command prompt, i.e.

rd \S C:\Users\asus\AppData\Roaming\Python

[triggerhappy88]

i dont know how to insert that rd \S in the cmd, so i manually searched for that appdata roaming thing. it is working now, thank you very much for your help ,:D
i really appreciate it, i hope it will not crash again later because i have class

[triggerhappy88]

Hi im desperate for some help 😭

[triggerhappy88]

[triggerhappy88]

[triggerhappy88]

Im left with only one item i cant figure out, question 2.2.6.

[triggerhappy88]

Im hoping you can help me determine the code to determine the average number of repeat calls please

[dalthviz]

Hi @triggerhappy88, I think that is out of the scope of Spyder as an application and what we can help over here. Sorry to not be helpful at that level, but we are glad that you're using Spyder for your classes :)

[MarkSCQ]

I ran this "pip install --upgrade spyder" in "Anaconda prompt" and then used "spyder --show-console" and it worked.

This works for me, Thank you so much

[PbChauhan]

No need to upgrade spyder. your ipykernel and qtpy is not of required version.
So use this
"pip install --upgrade ipykernel"
"pip install --upgrade qtpy"

[utkarshsharma1]

I just upgraded spyder using this command & the issue resolved
conda upgrade spyder
on anaconda console.

[Hilaren]

Also ran into same issue here with the traceback below :

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: KiteClient.sig_client_started[list].emit(): argument 1 has unexpected type 'str'

I've tried quite a lot ways to solve the issue while failed :

1. spyder --reset (doesn't work)
2. spyder --show-console (got the traceback)
3. uninstall and re-install spyder (doesn't work)

I've been working on it for a few days, can anyone help? Thank you so much!!

[fabioalvescarvalho]

I ran this "pip install --upgrade spyder" in "Anaconda prompt" and then used "spyder --show-console" and it worked.

This worked for me too, thanks!!!
