OSError [Errno 2] No such file or directory while installing Jupyter Notebook in Python 3.11 on Windows 11

I am trying to install Jupyter Notebook on my Windows 11 machine using Python 3.11.4, but I encounter an OSError with the message:

[Errno 2] No such file or directory.

I have already tried different installation commands, including pip install notebook, pip install notebook --user, and python -m pip install jupyter, but none of them resolved the issue.

Error details:

ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\Users\1234\AppData\Local\Packages\PythonSoftwareFoundation.Python.3.11_qbz5n2kfra8p0\LocalCache\local-packages\Python311\site-packages\jedi\third_party\typeshed\third_party\2and3\requests\packages\urllib3\packages\ssl_match_hostname\_implementation.pyi'

I have also referred to the following Stack Overflow links, but the solutions provided did not help me resolve the issue:

  1. Python: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
  2. Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/C:/Windows/TEMP/abs_e9b7158a-aa56-4a5b-87b6-c00d295b01fanefpc8_o/

How to resolve this OSError and successfully install Jupyter Notebook on Python 3.11 running on Windows 11?

I have verified that my pip version is 23.2.1 and tried to install Jupyter Notebook using both system-wide and user-specific installation options, but the error persists.

Avoid installing python from Microsoft Store. Reinstall instead the last version with the .exe from the official site

The issue is likely due to the long file path limitation in Windows. I encountered the same problem and resolved it by enabling the long path support in the Windows Registry.

Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Open the Registry Editor. You can do this by typing regedit in the Run dialog (Win + R) and pressing Enter.

  2. Navigate to the following path:

    Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem

  3. Find the entry named LongPathsEnabled.

  4. Double-click on LongPathsEnabled and change its value from 0 to 1.

  5. Click OK and close the Registry Editor.

After making this change, the long path support should be enabled, and your problem should be resolved.
