Using older versions of Anaconda Distribution#

Anaconda recommends upgrading your operating system to the latest available or to one that is commonly used and supported. Upgrading your OS allows you to get the latest packages, performance improvements, bug fixes, and more.

Anaconda Distribution is currently available for 64-bit Windows, macOS (Intel x86 and Apple Silicon), and 64-bit Linux (x86_64 CPU, AWS Graviton 2/ARM 64, and IBM Z architectures).

Installing older versions of Anaconda Distribution#

Note

Older versions of Anaconda Distribution are still subject to Anaconda’s Terms of Service.

Older versions of Anaconda Distribution are still available for 32-bit Windows, 32-bit Linux (Intel and AMD x86), and 64-bit Linux (IBM Power CPU architecture) and can be downloaded from our archive. However, these installations are no longer supported by Anaconda and most are no longer receiving security updates.

Caution

You might not be able to use conda to update or install packages beyond what is included in the Anaconda Distribution version you’ve installed. This is because Anaconda Distribution provides a static bundle of packages from the time of release, but the repository continues to be updated over time. Older package versions may be removed or replaced, and the versions present in the repository might not be compatible with your operating system. For package lists for each version of Anaconda Distribution, see the Anaconda Distribution release notes.
