Description
A directory named etc containing etc\jupyter\labconfig\page_config.json is created everytime I run jupyter lab even though I have JUPYTER_CONFIG_DIR pointing to another location.
jupyter --path and jupyter --paths return the following:
config:
C:\intrastuff\Programs\Python\Version-3.13.5\Peripheral Data\Packages\PyPI\JupyterLab\Peripheral Data\Configuration # Where `JUPYTER_CONFIG_DIR` is pointing
C:\intrastuff\Programs\Python\Version-3.13.5\Peripheral Data\Standard Library\etc\jupyter # Where `PYTHONHOME` is pointing
data:
C:\intrastuff\Programs\Python\Version-3.13.5\Peripheral Data\Packages\PyPI\JupyterLab\Peripheral Data\Data # Where `JUPYTER_DATA_DIR` is pointing
C:\intrastuff\Programs\Python\Version-3.13.5\Peripheral Data\Standard Library\share\jupyter # Where `PYTHONHOME` is pointing
runtime:
C:\intrastuff\Programs\Python\Version-3.13.5\Peripheral Data\Packages\PyPI\JupyterLab\Peripheral Data\Runtime # Where `JUPYTER_RUNTIME_DIR` is pointing
