I think this is the simplest way to get things running. Also, it would prevent frustration from running into problems with the new version.\r\n\r\n### tl;dr for Windows 10 with Anaconda\r\n1. Have [Julia 0.6x](https://julialang.org/downloads/oldreleases.html) installed (versions 0.7 and 1.0 of Julia are currently not working with IJulia). Have [Anaconda](http://julialang.org/downloads/) installed. \r\n2. Find the location of Jupyter: Start the [Anaconda Prompt](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47914980/how-to-access-anaconda-command-prompt-in-windows-10-64-bit). Run the command `where Jupyter`. The answer is the location of Jupyter, e.g. *C:\\ProgramData\\Anaconda3\\Scripts\\jupyter.exe*\r\n3. Tell Julia where Jupyter is: Start Julia (i.e., start the Julia REPL). Run the command `ENV[\"JUPYTER\"]=\"C:\\\\ProgramData\\\\Anaconda3\\\\Scripts\\\\jupyter.exe\"`  (You need to adapt the location you learned in point 2. Note that the backslashes need to be doubled, i.e. \\\\\\ instead of \\\\.)\r\n4. Install IJulia: Run `Pkg.add(\"IJulia\")` in the Julia REPL.\r\n5. Run Jupyter: Either from Windows Start Menu, or from within Julia REPL. For the latter run `using IJulia` and `notebook()`"}}
