I was trying to change the default starting directory of Anaconda Jupyter notebook on Windows 10
- Conda version 4.3.31
- Jupyter notebook version 5.2.2
From this link, I learned that I need to change c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir
attribute to change the default directory.
I executed jupyter --config-dir
to find the location of the configuration file and executed jupyter notebook --generate-config
to generate the configuration file and changed c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir
value to the directory I want.
Now if I run jupyter notebook
command in cmd, it will start in the directory I mentioned. But if I run from the start menu, it is starting in the default folder.
Does anyone know why this is happening? I tried to change the path in the Start in field in shortcut properties of Jupyter Notebook. After doing that, I am not able to open from the start menu. When I click the Icon, it just opens and closes immediately.
