My Anaconda Navigator (v1.9.12) has been prompting me to upgrade to 1.10.0. Only problem is, when I click "yes" on the update prompt (which should close the navigator and update it), nothing happens.
No problem, I thought. I ran
conda update anaconda-navigator
in the terminal. To no avail (and yes, I read the doc online and ran "conda deactivate" beforehand), same with
conda install anaconda-navigator=1.10
Both ran for a while, but the desktop navigator is still on the old version. One thing to note: the Looking for incompatible packages line was taking way too long (hours with no notable progress), so I ctrl-c'ed out. But I ran these commands again they managed to finish running.
Now I'm out of ideas, would anyone know what I can do to go through with the update? Thanks a lot!

Every time Navigator starts, it checks whether a new version is available. If one is available, a dialog box displays that allows you to upgrade to a new Navigator version or keep your current version. Anaconda recommends keeping Navigator updated to the latest version.
Close Anaconda Navigator. Uninstall (if necessary) and reinstall VS Code. On macOS, make sure the VS Code application is moved from your Downloads folder to your Applications folder. Re-open Anaconda Navigator.
Updating a packageClick the checkbox next to the package you want to update, then in the menu that appears select Mark for Update. In the Version column, click the blue up arrow that indicates there is a newer version available. Click the Apply button.
The solution is in the documentation of the update itself:
... -Fixed bug with Navigator Updater tool: The bug was a part of the 1.9.12 release, so user will not be able to update from 1.9.12 to 1.10.0 through this tool. You will need to use the terminal or install 1.10.0 from our official website. ...
Therefore you have to open anaconda prompt and run the following lines consecutively:
conda deactivate
enter
conda update anaconda-navigator
enter

If you prefer, you may update Navigator manually.
Open the Anaconda prompt (terminal on Linux or macOS):
Run this command to deactivate conda:
conda deactivate
Then run this command to update Navigator:
conda update anaconda-navigator
Had the same problem, worked on me.
