Anaconda / Python: Change Anaconda Prompt User Path

In Windows, if you have the shortcut in your taskbar, right-click the “Anaconda Prompt” icon, you’ll see:

  • Anaconda Prompt
  • Unpin from taskbar (if pinned)
  • Close window

Right-click on “Anaconda Prompt” again.

Click “Properties”

Add the path you want your anaconda prompt to open up into in the “Start In:” section.

Note – you can also do this by searching for “Anaconda Prompt” in the Start Menu. The directions above are specifically for the shortcut.
