How to access Anaconda command prompt in Windows 10 (64-bit)

I had to install the 64-bit version of Anaconda with python 3.5 in Windows 10. I followed the default settings (AppData/Continuum/Anaconda3). However, after installation, I am unsure how to access the Anaconda command prompt so that I can use conda to install packages. I also attempted to install Anaconda 64 bit in C:/Program Files, but several of the python script did not like the space and it failed to install.

What can I do to access the Anaconda prompt?

Go with the mouse to the Windows Icon (lower left) and start typing "Anaconda". There should show up some matching entries. Select "Anaconda Prompt". A new command window, named "Anaconda Prompt" will open. Now, you can work from there with Python, conda and other tools.

To run Anaconda Prompt using icon, I made an icon and put

%windir%\System32\cmd.exe "/K" C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3 The file location would be different in each computer.

at icon -> right click -> Property -> Shortcut -> Target

I see %HOMEPATH% at icon -> right click -> Property -> Start in

OS: Windows 10, Library: Anaconda 10 (64 bit)
