Issues with installing python libraries on Windows : CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url <https://conda.anaconda.org/anaconda/win-64

I'd like to install the pymongo library but I'm getting the following error: (C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3) C:\Users\xxxxxxx> conda install -c anaconda pymongo Fetching package metadata ... CondaHTTPError: HTTP 000 CONNECTION FAILED for url <https://conda.anaconda.org/a naconda/win-64/repodata.json> Elapsed: - An HTTP error occurred when trying to retrieve this URL. HTTP errors are often intermittent, and a simple retry will get you on your way. ConnectTimeout(MaxRetryError("HTTPSConnectionPool(host='conda.anaconda.org', por t=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /anaconda/win-64/repodata.json (Caused by ConnectTimeoutError(<urllib3.connection.VerifiedHTTPSConnection object at 0x000 00000054D6128>, 'Connection to conda.anaconda.org timed out.

Update C:\Users\\xxxxxxx\.condarc file with the following: channels: - defaults ssl_verify: false proxy_servers: http: http://sproxy.fg.xxx.com:1000 https: https://sproxy.fg.xxx.com:1000 2. (C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3) C:\Users\xxxxxxx> conda config --set ssl_verify False Additional Info: (C:\Users\xxxxxxx\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3) C:\Users\xxxxxxx> conda info Current conda install: platform : win-64 conda version : 4.3.27 conda is private : False conda-env version : 4.3.27 conda-build version : 3.0.22 python version : 3.6.2.final.0 requests version : 2.18.4 config file : C:\Users\xxxxxxx\.condarc netrc file : None offline mode : False user-agent : conda/4.3.27 requests/2.18.4 CPython/3.6.2 Windows/7 W indows/6.1.7601 administrator : False A number of posts online simply reinstalled Anaconda, any other options apart from a fresh install?
This works a charm:- Just copy these:- libcrypto-1_1-x64.dll libssl-1_1-x64.dll from D:\Anaconda3\Library\bin to D:\Anaconda3\DLLs.
