I am having issues with changing the starting folder of Jupyter notebooks, as I would like to run the notebooks on a shared server. I am running Windows 10. I have already tried several of the options online:

  • I have tried changing the "Start in" property of the jupyter shortcut: now the shortcut just quickly opens the terminal, then immediately closes again and nothing more happens.
  • I have tried running the "jupyter notebook --generate-config" command, both in and outside python: in the first case it tells me that jupyter is not a recognised command, and in the second that there's a syntax error at notebook.
  • I have made a .bat file with the instructions of the shortcut ('''C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\python.exe C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\cwp.py C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3 C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\python.exe C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts\jupyter-notebook-script.py Z:\Test''') but it simply opens the terminal in python, and nothing more.

If I try to launch jupyter from the anaconda interface it works, and I can also start it from the terminal, but not in any other way.

The "jupyter notebook --generate-config" method, explained well in this answer from @marneylc, worked, I just had to start in the Anaconda Promt, rather than in cmd.

I hope this is the right way of answering my own question...
