PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

I’m somewhat new to Python. I’ve used it in a bunch of projects, but haven’t really needed to stray from its standard setup. I’m trying to install some new packages to get access to functions necessary for a university assignment. When I try to install, I get the following:

(base) C:\Anaconda2\Jupyter>conda install -c python-control -c cyclus slycot control
Solving environment: failed

PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels:

  - slycot
  - control

Current channels:

  - https://conda.anaconda.org/python-control/win-64
  - https://conda.anaconda.org/python-control/noarch
  - https://conda.anaconda.org/cyclus/win-64

...

And a bunch of other channels similar to that above.

I’ve been searching for a solution, but haven’t found anything substantial. I’ve seen that it may be a problem with Windows, which is what I’m using it on. Past that I haven’t a clue of what is going on.

Keep in mind, I don’t really understand how channels and packages work, so any insight on that matter would be great too.
