If you want to keep python 3  you can follow these directions to create a python 2 7 environment  called py27   Then you just need to activate py27     conda activate py27   Then you can install spyder on this environment  e g        conda install spyder   Then you can start spyder from the command line or navigate to 2 7 version of spyder exe below the envs directory  e g  C  ProgramData Anaconda3 envs py27 Scripts

In Preferences  select Python Interpreter  Under Python Interpreter  change from  Default  to  Use the following Python interpreter   The path there should be the default Python executable  Find your Python 2 7 executable and use that

First  you have to run below codes in Anaconda prompt   conda create -n py27 python 2 7   for version 2 7 activate py27  conda create -n py36 python 3 6   for version 3 6 activate py36   Then  you have to open Anaconda navigator and   The button might say  install  instead of Launch  After the installation  which takes a few moments  It will be ready to launch   Thank you   cloudscomputes and  Francisco Camargo

If you are using anaconda to go into python environment you should have build up different environment for different python version  The following scripts may help you build up a new environment running in anaconda prompt   conda create -n py27 python 2 7   for version 2 7 activate py27  conda create -n py36 python 3 6   for version 3 6 activate py36  you may leave the environment back to your global env by typing deactivate py27  or  deactivate py36    and then you can either switch to different environment using your anaconda UI with   Francisco Camargo  s answer  or you can stick to anaconda prompt using   Dan  s answer
