Problem Analysis

Possible issues with package upgrades or uninstallations related to spyder dependencies.
After upgrading PyQt5 to version 5.15, conflicts occurred since spyder requires PyQt5<5.13, causing startup failures.

Solution

Open Anaconda Prompt and execute:

1
pip install spyder

Explanation:
pip automatically installs dependency-compatible packages. For example, when installing spyder (which requires PyQt5<5.13), pip detects the installed PyQt5 5.15 and downgrades to the highest compatible version (PyQt5 5.12.3, the latest version below 5.13).
