Solution 1
Press CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+P to open the Preferences window. Within this window, select the Console item on the left, then the Advanced Settings tab. The path to the Python executable will be right there.
Solution 2
With Spyder v. 4.2.5 that comes with Anaconda3 v. 4.10.1, I do not see 'Console' on the left in the Preferences menu (i.e. Tools>Preferences). In this version you can change the path to the python.exe file under Python interpreter on the left.

I'm using Debian. I installed Python 3.2.3. The path of Python 3 is /usr/bin/python3. How do I change it in Spyder?

Aleksey Kontsevich about 7 yearsDoes not work for me:
An error ocurred while starting the kernel Either: Your IPython frontend and kernel versions are incompatible or You don't have IPython installed in your external interpreter. In any case, we're sorry but we can't create a console for you.Any other solution? I've tried Python 3.6.1 from anaconda3.
