[FIXED] Can’t find Desktop folder in Jupyter Notebook

Issue

I have recently re-installed Anaconda and Jupyter Notebook on my machine and now when I launch Jupyter, I can’t find my ’Desktop’, ’Downloads’, ’Documents’ maps that were usually there at the start page. There isn’t any ’Users’ or ’C:/’ maps either, and I can’t find my way to my notebooks that are located on my Desktop. Instead it is showing a lot of .dll files and weird sounding maps. How do I navigate to the map that I need in Jupyter?

Solution

You could use the Anaconda Prompt to navigate to the 'C:/' folder (or any other folder you want) and then launch jupyter notebook from there.

In the Anaconda Prompt try:

(base) C:\Users\Ale>cd "C:/"
(base) C:\>jupyter notebook
