Did you navigate to the new environment? The first line you ran created a new Python environment specifically for FEniCSx and dolfinx won’t be available in the base environment. If you are in the command prompt you can call `conda activate fenicsx-env` to change to the new environment, and the start the Jupyter Notebook with `jupyter notebook`.
