Folders visible when opening jupyter notebooks

When I open Jupyter Notebooks, I see all of the folders under "Owner" on my computer (including My Documents, My Pictures, etc). I wanted to see if there was any way that I could install Anaconda or use Jupyter notebooks so that these folders are not seen. Having all of those folders clutters the screen, I just want folders for my datasets and notebooks.

In addition, when I open it in localhost and I see these folders (My Documents, My Pictures).

Does this mean that these files are copied onto python's servers? Or would it only be accessible from my computer?

Before you use conda activate on your environment, cd into the directory that has your env folder in it.

You can change the default directory of Jupyter Notebook.

  1. Go to .jupyter folder. It's usually in <USER NAME>/.jupyter

  2. Open the config file jupyter_notebook_config.py in a text editor

  3. If the file was missing, create it first by running the command: jupyter notebook --generate-config

  4. Change it at: c.NotebookApp.notebook_dir = 'D:/'

  1. Open Jupyter Notebook which results in the Juyter Dashboard.
  2. Open new terminal from here.
