To avoid any permissions issues, install FIJI is in your home directory:
- PC:
C:\users\<your user name> - Mac:
/Users/<your user name>
WARNING: FIJI must be installed in a location where it has write permission - otherwise, it cannot update itself
- PC:
-
Start FIJI and allow the updater to run:
-
(Optional) If the updater does not run automatically, select
Help > Update:
-
If FIJI produces any error messages, it is most likely because it does not have the necessary permissions to update itself - return to step #2 and double-check the location of the installation.
- Install Miniconda by following the installation instructions for your operating system at this page. You can ignore the optional step 2.
- Please check that the installation worked properly by opening the Terminal (MacOS) or Anaconda Prompt (Windows) and typing
conda list. If conda has been installed correctly, a list of installed packages appears.
FAQ: "What should I do if I already have conda installed on my machine?"
