Update Anaconda and Spyder??

[snippsat]

It is.

conda update conda
conda update spyder

Always do this when (base) environment is activate.
Eg use Anaconda Prompt

One of the strong point is that you can make your own new environment,
with eg Python 3.9.1 and Spyder ect...

conda create --name new_env conda jupyterlab pandas matplotlib requests spyder python=3.9.1

So from base environment,eg i activate myself as i use cmder or use Anaconda Prompt.

C:\
λ cd Anaconda3\Scripts\

C:\Anaconda3\Scripts
λ activate.bat

# See (base) so now is activated 
(base) C:\Anaconda3\Scripts
conda create --name new_env conda jupyterlab pandas matplotlib requests spyder python=3.9.1

When finishes activate new_env

(base) C:\Anaconda3
λ conda activate new_env

(new_env) C:\Anaconda3
λ cd ..

(new_env) C:\
λ python -V
Python 3.9.1

(new_env) C:\
λ conda list spyder
# packages in environment at C:\Anaconda3\envs\new_env:
#
# Name                    Version                   Build  Channel
pyls-spyder               0.3.0              pyhd3eb1b0_0
spyder                    4.2.1            py39haa95532_1
spyder-kernels            1.10.1           py39haa95532_0

So now you work from new_env where you have Python 3.9.1 and newest version of Spyder.
