How to open Jupyter notebook in a specific folder?

While trying to launch the jupyter notebook (anaconda), it by default runs into the C: Drive incase you are using windows operating system. There must be some scenario where you are placing the dataset in one particular drive location and copying the same where the jupyter notebooks open by default.Now the question arise, “can we open jupyter notebook in a specific folder we like?”

The answer is “Yes”, otherwise why would I have invested my time in writing this.

The process:

Let’s suppose, I have a data present in this location in the D:\Python_Notebooks and I want to open the jupyter notebooks here,

Here are the steps:

1. Open the Anaconda Prompt(anaconda)
2. Change the directory in the Anaconda Prompt like D:\Python_Notebooks
3. Once the directory is changed, type — jupyter noteook

Once these above steps are done, the jupyter notebook console will automatically open the location you had mentioned.

Kindly refer the screenshots for the reference:
