what is the next continuous video followed this video

[@BioinfoCopilot]

The next video will be how to use nf-core pipelines like sarek, rnaseq etc

[@AntoniOldAccount]

Which operative system are you using? I'm using windows 10 and there is no way to install the packages, always with the same error: PackagesNotFoundError: The following packages are not available from current channels. This happens with - bioconda, - nextflow. Some idea?

[@BioinfoCopilot]

I am using Mac 🖥️. I would suggest you to install ubuntu as well alongside Windows and perform the tasks.

@@BioinfoCopilot I have solved it using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) as it is the only way to use Nextflow on Windows, thanks anyway!
