'error loading jupyter notebook permission denied: ipynb
I was working in a jupyter notebook until it froze. It wouldn't save or shut down so I restarted my computer. I launched jupyter notebook from an anaconda prompt, my folder directory opens per usual. When i tried to open the notebook from before, I get an error loading screen that says permission denied: (name of notebook).ipynb. I hit close and the notebook shuts down.
I checked the folder permissions, I have full control. I can create a new ipynb without any issues. I can open other notebooks without any problem in the same folder. I tried to run a trust notebook through the anaconda prompt and it says the notebook is missing.
I need to recover this particular notebook as it has all my work. Help! Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
I work in the anaconda prompt in an environment other than the root, so this answer using sudo chmod doesn't work for me.

I had possibly the same problem. In my case the problem was that jupyter notebook must have crashed or had some problem whilst autosaving.
As a result, in the folder where the notebook is saved there's a temporary file called ".~nameofnotebook.ipynb".
This file didn't show up in jupyter notebook, but only in the explorer. I deleted the notebook file and renamed the temporary file to delete the ".~" prefix. Make sure to save a copy of the notebook file before deleting anything in case your problem is different.
The renamed temporary file opens fine and none of my data was lost.

Change the name of the file and you are good to go bro..
