<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Anaconda Distribution">
    1. View a full list of Anaconda Distribution installers in the official [archive](https://repo.anaconda.com/archive/).
    2. Copy the **filename** of an installer from the archive, then download it using a `curl`, `wget`, or `Invoke-Webrequest` command:

           <Note>
             Make sure to choose an installer that is compatible with your operating system and architecture.

             ***

             Installer filenames include the Anaconda Distribution version and platform. For example, `https://repo.anaconda.com/archive/Anaconda3-2025.12-1-MacOSX-arm64.sh` is Anaconda Distribution version 2025.12-1 on macOS with ARM64 architecture (Apple Silicon).

           <Warning>
             You might not be able to use conda to update or install packages beyond what is included in the Anaconda Distribution version you've installed. This is because Anaconda Distribution provides a static bundle of packages from the time of release, but the repository continues to be updated over time. Older package versions might be removed or replaced, and the versions present in the repository might not be compatible with your operating system. For package lists for each version of Anaconda Distribution, see the [Anaconda Distribution release notes](/getting-started/anaconda/release-notes).
