I am using different browsers for different purposes in Ubuntu. I would like for Jupyter Notebook to open in a different browser without having to change my default browser. There were a lot of examples showing how to do it for Windows, but they did not work in Ubuntu.

For this you need to create a Jupyter Notebook config file and set the notebook browser to your choice of browser. You may follow steps below to set the notebook to your default browser. Microsoft Edge is used as an example. You can use this method for any other browser.
1. Create a Jupyter Notebook Config file
For this first you need to make a Jupyter Notebook config file. You can do this using following command:
jupyter notebook --generate-config Then open the config file. If you used the default location for the file it would be in:
./jupyter/jupyter_notebook_config.py 2. Search for browser configuration
Search for following word to change your Juypter Notebook launch browser.
c.NotebookApp.browser 3. Find your browser path For this example I will be using microsoft edge
which microsoft-edge The output will be:
/usr/bin/microsoft-edge 4. Set the launch browser in Jupyter Notebook
Paste the path from above and add %s in the end and remove #(uncomment) the line and save it.
c.NotebookApp.browser = '/usr/bin/microsoft-edge %s' 5. Now you are done. Enjoy. Have a great day !!
