I don't think you're supposed to run anaconda-navigator as root.

You'll want to make sure that you have installed the application as a normal user and not as root. InSo don't prefix the command to run the installer with sudo but just run it with your current user's shellpermissions.

Once you're installed, try activating the Anaconda virtual environment before and then running the application. This should add the program to your PATH. The steps below activate Anaconda's virtual environment and start anaconda-navigator.

  1. If you installed Anaconda in your home directory in a folder called anaconda3, the default location, then use the following command.
source ~/anaconda3/bin/activate
  1. Now run the applicationanaconda-navigator.
anaconda-navigator

This worked for me.
