After downgrading to 4.6.14 as suggested, this is what happened

>conda update --all
Collecting package metadata: done
Solving environment: *** picosat: out of memory in 'resize'

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

> conda update --all

Expected Behavior

Packages were updated as normal

Have the same when trying to conda update jupyter. Python.exe takes 1.8 Gb and goes out of memory.

How much RAM does you computer have?

[u07]

8G in total, at least 4G free. Just before that happened I had executed "conda update conda" with no errors, and just now successfully updated numpy. So it seems that not any packet will crash it, just some.

[u07]

1.8 is kind of a limit for 32-bit apps, which python.exe happens to be.

I have 4GB RAM , 32bit laptop. I am facing the same issue.
