Issue
That issue concerns windows session with a username that contains special characters (as é, è...).
After installation, running the Miniforge Prompt lead to an error
Le chemin d’accès spécifié est introuvable.
(base) C:\Users\Angélina>
And conda cannot be launch.
Running activate.bat the same way as in the shortcut
C:\Users\Angélina\mambaforge\Scripts\activate.bat C:\Users\Angélina\mambaforge
leads to the same error. I suspect an error on the way activate.bat deals with special characters.
We have found a workaround : running
C:\Users\Angélina>C:\Users\Angélina\mambaforge\Scripts\conda init
In an elevated cmd allowed us to use conda (and mamba).
I have checked : it seems that this behavior only occurs un miniforge. A miniconda prompt works out of the box/
