Solution 1:

When you install anaconda on windows now, it doesn't automatically add Python or Conda to your path.

If you don’t know where your conda and/or python is, you type the following commands into your anaconda prompt

Next, you can add Python and Conda to your path by using the setx command in your command prompt.

Next close that command prompt and open a new one. Congrats you can now use conda and python

From your Command prompt 'C:\Users\zkdur\anaconda3\Scripts

Now try

conda init --help

conda init --verbose after that restart your command prompt and conda will be working.
