title: Anaconda failing to solve environment
body: <p>** Disclaimer: I am relatively new to data science and anaconda. I have basic competency in python however, I'm no expert (took an accelerated course on the path to obtaining an applied economics major if that helps illustrate where I'm at)**</p>
  <p>Basic Info: MacOSx (Catalina v 10.15.4), Anaconda Navigator v 1.9.12, Spyder v.4.0.1
  I am still unable to install selenium on anaconda even after  trying  all of the following commands in my terminal:</p>
  <ul>
  <li><code>conda install -c conda-forge selenium</code></li>
  <li><code>conda install -c conda-forge/label/gcc7 selenium</code></li>
  <li><code>conda install -c conda-forge/label/cf201901 selenium</code></li>
  <li><code>conda install -c conda-forge/label/cf202003 selenium</code></li>
  </ul>
  <p>Each time I try, I get this message</p>
  <pre><code>Solving environment: failed with initial frozen solve. Retrying with flexible solve.

  <p>After this it lists a BUNCH of stuff that all look similar to this (this is just the first line of MANY):</p>
  <p><code>anaconda-navigator -&gt; python[version='2.7.*|3.5.*|3.6.*|3.4.*']</code></p>
  <p>...</p>
  <p>...</p>
  <p>Things I have tried to resolve this problem:</p>
  <ol>
  <li><p><code>conda update conda</code> because I heard this might have something to do with having a python v that wasn't compatible with anaconda navigator. Update was successful but came back with the same message above</p>
  </li>
  <li><p><code>pip install -U selenium</code> and <code>python setup.py install</code></p>
  </li>
  </ol>
  <p>Please help me be able to use selenium in spyder!!! Thank you so much!</p>
