conda activate
conda update -y -n base -c defaults conda

conda create -y --name CloudComPy310 python=3.10
   # --- erase previous env with the same name if existing

conda activate CloudComPy310
conda config --add channels conda-forge
conda config --set channel_priority flexible

You may get “SafetyError” and “ClobberError” messages, but this doesn't seem to be a problem.

WARNING On Windows, with the binary based on the conda packages, Python 3.10, only the English version of CloudCompare is available,
   the translations are not available: it seems that this is due to a bug in the Qt 5.15.4 version of the conda package.
   We are waiting for the correction of this bug in the packaging.
