After installing Anaconda on Ubuntu, every time you start the terminal, it will automatically enter the CONDA base environment. You can exit the CONDA environment through the following instructions:

conda deactivate

But considering that you need to perform this step to exit every time, it is troublesome, so you want to start the terminal without entering the CONDA environment. It is recommended to modify the config file of CONDA

conda config --set auto_activate_base false

However, I don’t use it here. After starting, I will automatically enter the base environment of CONDA. The final solution is to modify the configuration file of CONDA directly

sudo vi ~/.condarc

Add in the last line:

auto_activate_base: false

So far, it’s done.

Query specific settings through “CONDA – H”:
