If you are absolutely sure that your Python library path is in your system variables (and you can find that path when you pip install Jupyter, you just have to read a bit) and you still experience "command not found or recognized" errors in Windows, you can try:

python -m notebook

For my Windows at least (Windows 10 Pro), having the python -m is the only way I can run my Python packages from command line without running into some sort of error

Fatal error in launcher: Unable to create process using ' "

or

Errno 'THIS_PROGRAM' not found

I got Jupyter notebook running in Windows 10  I found the easiest way to accomplish this task without relying upon a distro like Anaconda was to use Cygwin   In Cygwin install python2  python2-devel  python2-numpy  python2-pip  tcl  tcl-devel   I have included a image below of all packages I installed  and any other python packages you want that are available  This is by far the easiest option   Then run this command to just install jupyter notebook   python -m pip install jupyter   Below is the actual commands I ran to add more libraries just in case others need this list too   python -m pip install scipy  python -m pip install scikit-learn  python -m pip install sklearn  python -m pip install pandas  python -m pip install matplotlib  python -m pip install jupyter   If any of the above commands fail do not worry the solution is pretty simple most of the time  What you do is look at the build failure for whatever missing package   library    Say it is showing a missing pyzmq then close Cygwin  re-open the installer  get to the package list screen  show  full  for all  then search for the name like zmq and install those libraries and re-try the above commands    Using this approach it was fairly simple to eventually work through all the missing dependencies successfully   Cygwin package list  Once everything is installed then run in Cygwin goto the folder you want to be the  root  for the notebook ui tree and type   jupyter notebook   This will start up the notebook and show some output like below     jupyter notebook  I 19 05 30 459 NotebookApp  Serving notebooks from local directory    I 19 05 30 459 NotebookApp  0 active kernels  I 19 05 30 459 NotebookApp  The Jupyter Notebook is running at    I 19 05 30 459 NotebookApp  Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels  twice to skip confirmation    Copy paste this URL into your browser when you connect for the first time  to login with a token   http   localhost 8888  token xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
