If you installed anaconda, I guess you want to install rasa and spacy within the conda environment. So the first thing you need to do is, load the conda environment you created (see [Getting started with conda — conda 4.7.5.post22+aeb5e876 documentation](https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/getting-started.html)). Once you are inside your environment, you can just install rasa and spacy. You don’t need to be in a specific directory for that.

@Tanja I am using anaconda prompt and only thing I did is installed spacy and rasa nlu successfully while I am in my “chatbot” directory.Will this create issue in my further project. Please let me Know as I am completely new to all these framework and libraries.

If you created a new environment for your chatbot and installed spacy and rasa in there you should be fine. However, I would recommend reading some tutorial/blog post about environments in python if you are new to the topic, such as [https://towardsdatascience.com/getting-started-with-python-environments-using-conda-32e9f2779307](https://towardsdatascience.com/getting-started-with-python-environments-using-conda-32e9f2779307). Hope that helps.
