When you launch Jupyter Notebook from Anaconda, it will load the jupyter server from the default folder of Anaconda Powershell Prompt
which is usually C:\Users\yourname
. Unless you store all your notebooks under the default folder, you may want to load your notebooks from a different folder. It is very simple, just follow the following steps:
- launch
Anaconda Powershell Prompt
- type
cd yourfolder
to move the working directory to the folder of your choice - type
jupyter notebook
and it will start the server from your folder
Alternatively you may also change the default loading folder for Anaconda Powershell Prompt
. I do not do so as I usually store notebooks in different folders.
Done!
