This is how I am currently doing and is working fine.
C:\Users\me> dev\Scripts\activate
(dev) C:\Users\me> jupyter qtconsole --style monokai
I tried saving the above commands to .bat and double clicking the same.
The prompt opens and close.
I even tried.
C:\Users\me\dev\Scripts\jupyter.exe qtconsole --style monokai
>Error executing Jupyter command 'qtconsole': [Errno 'jupyter-qtconsole' not found] 2
cmd /k C:\Users\me\dev\Scripts\activate && jupyter qtconsole --style monokai only activates virtualenv.
It fails too. Is there anything missing?
There is jupyter-qtconsole.exe in your_env\Scripts. You can create new shortcut giving that path with optional arguments.
In my case, I right clicked on where I wanted shortcut, selected New>Shortcut and in the dialogue box that appeared in the target put C:\Users\me\dev\Scripts\jupyter-qtconsole.exe --style monokai saved it and voila.
