title: Why (or why not) Add Anaconda to path?
body: <p>I have found a partial answer in this question:
  <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/45185057/adding-anaconda-to-path-or-not">Adding Anaconda to Path or not</a> </p>
  
  <p>But I still don't fully understand. I have had a lot of installation issues when switching from a normal installation Python to Anaconda, requiring me to completely re-install Windows... So i want to get this right now. </p>
  
  <p><strong>What happens internally when I Add Anaconda (or python for that matter) to the PATH?</strong> I plan on working with seperate conda environments for different python versions, what could go wrong if I add Anaconda to path in the installation? And what is the difference between doing it in the installation or doing it later through the command prompt? Will it affect my ability to integrate anaconda with PyCharm?</p>
