I receive an Application launch error whenever I launch Jupyter notebook. I tried to follow the instructions in the last line of the error but the error never goes away. Could it be something with the working directory?

When I check the working directory in Jupyter notebook using %pwd, I get C:\Users\mayerk

However, my Anaconda working directory is C:\Users\mayerk\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3

This is the error that Anaconda Navigator returns each time I launch Jupyter Notebook:

Try: conda install -y nodejs
