Windows - 'jupyter' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file

I'm on Windows command line. I installed Jupyter via pip 3. I got this error, I suspect its path.

'jupyter' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

However when I run

where jupyter

It returns:

INFO: Could not find files for the given pattern(s).

Does this mean Jupyter hasn't downloaded properly? Because it seemed to be fine when using the pip3 command.

Go to start and search for Anaconda Navigator

Launch the program

Then in Home section you will see Jupyter Notebook then click on Launch

Hope this helps

Even I was stucked with the same issue.

What I did was I searched for the jupyter path in the Anaconda Prompt using the command "where jupyter"

After that I got a path

Then I went to my Environment variables(you would get this thing when you would search for the same) and then specified the new path there. And the problem was solved.

When you are installing Anaconda ensure to check the check boxes to add the path to env. This worked for me.

You need to add path,where Anaconda is installed,in the Environment variable. In my case it's C:\Users\zahid\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Library\bin C:\Users\zahid\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\Scripts

It could have two reasons:

Either Anaconda is not installed in Windows.

  • Install it.

Path for Anaconda is not set in Environment variable.

Open Anaconda Command Prompt, search for "where conda".

Results:

C:\Users\<loremipsm>\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda2\Library\bin\conda.bat
C:\Users\<loremipsum>\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda2\Scripts\conda.exe

Use : Path as "C:\Users\<loremipsum>\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda2\Scripts"

**Path is a sample one, use you own.

I'm also new to Python, but this is what I found.

Try installing using Anaconda, check Add Anaconda to my PATH environment variable.

The reason is because if it's not checked, or if you use pip 3, paths are not automatically added.

You may also choose to manually add the path in Setting - Environment Variables.
