# Anaconda Launcher

## Anaconda Launcher is now deprecated

As of Anaconda 4.0, Anaconda Launcher has been replaced by Anaconda Navigator. This section has been left in place as a reference for users of earlier versions of Anaconda. Some users who have upgraded from an earlier version may have both Navigator and Launcher installed, which is harmless. Launcher can be uninstalled with a single command:

    conda remove launcher
