Anaconda Navigator won't start : (Navigator Error) expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not NoneType

I wanted to use Kite on Anaconda. Then I placed these YAML codes from Kite website mistakenly into the configure conda and not into the configure navigator in the navigator preferences.

I tried most available solutions on the net but none have worked. Then I uninstalled my Anaconda (which was the newest win-64 version) and installed Ancaonda3-5.3.1 and nothing changes, but the Anaconda prompt works this time.
