Problems running Jupyter in VSC on windows ARM tablet

General
1

I recently installed
python 3.11.2 on a surface pro with ARM CPU running windows 11 home
I also installed VSC version 1.75.1 (no update available)
I’m able to run python in the terminal or as a .py file.

I installed jupyter through the command ‘pip install jupyter’ with no problems reported.
I can create a new jupyter notebook it’s setup to run the python interpreter.
However when I try to run any simple cell, like either ‘2+2’ or 'print(‘hello’) I get an error:

Stating:
Failed to start the Kernel.
Jupyter server crashed. Unable to connect.
Error code from Jupyter: 1
<output of jupyter -h>
Jupyter command jupyter-notebook not found.

What am I not doing right.
Does Jupyter run on Windows ARM based devices?

it’s been a year, with the latest version of python/jupyter/ipykernel, it is still unable to run jupyter on arm windows device. the kernel can successfully boot up, while jupyter indicates a failure on sending or receiving from kernel. my current solution is using anaconda through x64 emulation, though the performance decends but the stability and usability preserved

Works for me. Make sure pyzmq is built against libzmq 4.3.5 or newer. It’s probably worth to try the latest beta pip install pyzmq==26.0.0b2, or download from Releases · cgohlke/win_arm64-wheels · GitHub.
