Open Jupyter Notebook from a Drive Other than C Drive

I have a machine learning project in drive D. It contains python notebook files. But when I launch jupyter notebook through command prompt, it only shows directories inside drive C. How can I navigate to a drive other than C drive without changing jupyter notebook startup path?. I'm using windows 10 operating system.
