You can update your python version to 3 8 in conda using the command   conda install -c anaconda python 3 8   as per https   anaconda org anaconda python   Though not all packages support 3 8 yet  running   conda update --all   may resolve some dependency failures   You can also create a new environment called py38 using this command   conda create -n py38 python 3 8   Edit - note that the conda install option will potentially take a while to solve the environment  and if you try to abort this midway through you will lose your Python installation  usually this means it will resort to non-conda pre-installed system Python installation
