How to activate an environment

Use the conda activate command followed by the environment name:

conda activate myenv

Use conda deactivate:

conda deactivate

How to delete an environment

Use the conda env remove command:

conda env remove -n myenv

Use the conda env export command:

How to create an environment based on an environment file

Use the conda env create command:
