After installing Anaconda, the Jupyter notebook shortcut works fine. Other stackoverflow answers have indicated that you can change the default working directory by changing the "Start In:" field in the shortcut properties. However, if Anaconda is installed in the suggested folder for single users C:\Users\whshg0\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\
, then the Target
field of the shortcut gets truncated when you edit the Start in
field. Example:
C:\Users\user01\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\python.exe C:\Users\user01\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3\cwp.py C:\Users\user01\AppData\Local\Continuum\Anaconda3 "C:/Users/user01/AppData/Local/Continuum/Anaconda3/python.exe" "C:/Users/user01/AppData/Loc
al/Continuum/Anaconda3/Scripts/jupyter-notebook-script.py"
gets truncated. After you click ok, Jupyter Notebook will no longer open.
What is a fast way to rebuild the Jupyter Notebook shortcut so the Target
is not limited to the 255 character limit?
