Thanks for the reply, but saying that the installer works on your machine doesn't help me at all. Here is what i have tried so far:
Tried the offline installer (2021.1.1) on another PC and the the install didn't crash and successfully installed. However i still cannot run python. After the successful install i tried to follow the following instruction even though it was not clear to me that i needed to do these steps:
Using Intel Distribution for Python with Anaconda
At first i could not do "conda update conda" because i was getting the following:
Collecting package metadata (current_repodata.json): failed
CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url <https://conda.anaconda.org/intel/win-64/current_repodata.json>
Elapsed: -
An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL.
HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will get you on your way.
'https://conda.anaconda.org/intel/win-64'
Somewhere i read the maybe "conda init" may help fixing my "HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED" errors. It did help, i could do the following commands:
conda config --add channels intel
conda create -n idp intelpython3_full python=3.7
but when i tried to launch "source activate idp" i got:
C:\>C:\IntelPython3oneAPI\intelpython\python3.7\scripts\conda activate idp
CommandNotFoundError: Your shell has not been properly configured to use 'conda activate'.
If using 'conda activate' from a batch script, change your
invocation to 'CALL conda.bat activate'.
To initialize your shell, run
$ conda init <SHELL_NAME>
Currently supported shells are:
- bash
- cmd.exe
- fish
- tcsh
- xonsh
- zsh
- powershell
See 'conda init --help' for more information and options.
IMPORTANT: You may need to close and restart your shell after running 'conda init'.
I executed "conda init cmd.exe" again and i could initialize the conda, however when i tred to launch python with the IDP active, was getting warning that the IDP is not activated after which i GAVE UP!
Today when i try to launch python i am greeted with the following:
C:\>C:\IntelPython3oneAPI\intelpython\python3.7\scripts\conda activate idp

I do not have any environment, cannot initialize idp ... basically nothing works.
If i try to browse with explorer to the "C:\IntelPython3oneAPI\intelpython\python3.7\envs" folder i see that there are two environments - 2021.1.1 and idp
Not sure now conda can be this buggy and forget every command that i executed.
Not sure where to go from here.
