I'm out.

I downloaded a file environment.yml but it always saves as environment.yml.txt thats why this command conda env create -f environment.yml is not reading the file. Any solution ?

Have you tried renaming it to environment.yml?

I've tried this, and it work.

conda env update --file environment.yml
Or update a specific environment without activating it:
conda env update --name envname--file environment.yml

It would be nice if instead of the error CondaValueError: could not parse 'name: xxx' in: environment.yml when mistyping conda install --file environment.yml, conda would give a more helpful error message like conda install cannot use this environment.yml file. Did you mean conda env update --file environment.yml?
