Install Miniconda on Linux or WSL

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh
# yes yes
source ~/.bashrc
rm Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

# to ensure WSL can start normally without an active conda env
conda config --set auto_activate_base false

As part of the install script, I would have expected conda init to run, which would add this block into your bashrc file: ``` # >>> conda initialize >>> # !! Contents within this block are managed by 'conda init' !! __conda_setup="$('/home/<youruser>/miniconda3/bin/conda' 'shell.bash' 'hook' 2> /dev/null)" if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then eval "$__conda_setup" else if [ -f "/home/<youruser>/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" ]; then . "/home/<youruser>/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" else export PATH="/home/<youruser>/miniconda3/bin:$PATH" fi fi unset __conda_setup # <<< conda initialize <<< ``` So when you run source ~/.bashrc, this should add this to the path, for your current terminal session. You could check `echo $PATH` to verify If not there, try restarting your terminal.

Possibly useful note: do not run the bash Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh command with sudo unless you know the consequences. I did that out of habit, and was unable to access conda without first running sudo -i.

For anyone who makes a similar mistake, go into the root (`sudo -i'), follow the uninstall procedure, remove the miniconda3 directory inside of root, exit, and then repeat OP's steps without sudo.
