Startup folder problems

Bonjour,

I want to change Anaconda’s document startup folder.

I’ve been unable to do it despite the fact that I’ve read all the documentation that I’ve found. All my attempts at modifying “jupyter_notebook_config.py” have failed too change the startup folder. My last attempt at modifying it was:

Preferred starting directory to use for notebooks and kernels.

ServerApp.preferred_dir is deprecated in jupyter-server 2.0. Use

FileContentsManager.preferred_dir instead

Default: ‘’

c.ServerApp.preferred_dir = ‘D:/Neuro’

to try and place the startup directory in "D:/Neuro

I’ve tried everything from changing the ’ to ", / to \, doubling both types of slashes. I’ve closed down both my editor (Notepad++) and Anaconda Navigator each time. I’m in the base environment and have no other environments defined. The file itself is in c:\users\user name.juputer

I’m under Windows 11 Pro and the latest version of Anaconda; I must be doing something obviously wrong but I have know idea what.

Richard
