Julia kernel doesn't load in Jupyter Notebook - First installation

Hello everyone, I’m having issues trying to install Julia and IJulia for the first time.

I wish to use a workshop on Jupyter notebooks, I have installed Julia, added IJulia, and changed my Jupyter environment path to the one I use in my previous Anaconda installation.

I have been running
using IJulia
notebook(dir=raw"C ....", verbose=true)
so that it shows me the link to open up Jupyter on my browser. And when I open a notebook, it tries to connect to a Julia kernel. But that fails at almost the first step, here’s my terminal


It tries again a few times but that never works until it basically says it stops trying.

I have tried to run Pkg.activate(“@v1.12”), Pkg.resolve(), Pkg.instantiate(), Pkg.update(), but those do either nothing or telling that no packages were added or removed.

I can provide more logs or info if needed, thank you for helping me !

I think you somehow still have an old version of IJulia installed, it hasn’t depended on mbedtls for over a year: Changelog · IJulia

Could an old version be installed in one of your notebook projects?
