Below I’ll post a copy of what happens when I try to download IJulia; I can’t attach a screenshot. I can download any package that doesn’t require Conda, but as soon as it requires Conda (as far as I understand, it’s a prerequisite), IJulia doesn’t see it. I tried adding Anaconda to PATH, but it didn’t help. And the IJulia kernel didn’t show up in Jupiter Lab.

This is all one forum; the different categories are just organizational. I’ll close this duplicate and focus things in the original post.
