title: How to upgrade from Anaconda 5.2 (that uses python 3.6.6) to Anaconda 5.3 (that uses python 3.7)
body: <h1>Background  </h1>
  
  <p>I had Anaconda 5.2 with python version <strong>3.6.5</strong> On windows 10.<br>
  As the time of the writing, the latest Anaconda version is 5.3, which uses python <strong>3.7.0</strong>. The latest python release is <strong>3.7.1</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>I used the following commands in cmd 2 times to update to the latest Anaconda:</p>
  
  <pre><code>conda update conda
  conda update anaconda
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The end result of above is that, the Anaconda is now version 5.3, but python is updated to the latest 3.6, but not to 3.7</p>
  
  <pre><code>list anaconda
  # packages in environment at C:\Anaconda3:
  #
  # Name                    Version                  Build  Channel
  anaconda                  5.3.0                    py36_0
  anaconda-client           1.7.2                    py36_0
  anaconda-navigator        1.7.0                    py36_0
  anaconda-project          0.8.2                    py36_0
  
  python --version
  Python 3.6.6 :: Anaconda, Inc.
