jupyter notebook starting directory
<p>I'm trying to set a custom starting directory in Jupyter Notebook. I have edited jupyter_notebook_config.py. </p>

<p>Removed # from line "c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir =", added parameter:</p>

<pre><code>c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir = u'c:\\my\\chosen\\directory'.
</code></pre>

<p>But still doesn't work, console coming up with error, and jupyter starting in the default home directory. </p>

<p>I'm using Windows server 2008. According to the manuals, it should work.</p>

<p>Does anyone have a suggestion about my problem?</p>
