So I ran Spyder and loved it but noticed it had an upgrade to version 3.0.1.  So I ran pip and installed the upgrade.  It now crashes on startup.\r\n![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/14210514/20330297/f208b868-ab5a-11e6-8b49-64d7603f0492.png)\r\n\r\nI tried the remove command suggested - no luck.  Desperate to get this app working I uninstalled and reinstalled anaconda multiple times, deleted all the folders and registry settings dealing with anaconda and spyder - anything to get the app back.  It still crashes.  No matter what I try, I can't seem to get a working version of Spyder.  Short of reinstalling the OS is there any way to get back to a version that works?  Is there any hope?  TIA"}}
