i know i am doing something stupid here, but i can't figure out how to cd to a folder on another drive.. i type cd X:\xxx or cd W:\xxx and get no resonse whatever.. it just goes back to C:\> ... please enlighten me & forgive my stupidity..
thanks
I don't remember DOS that well, but I always change to the drive and then choose the directory in 2 separate commands.
If I'm at
C:\windows and want to get to d:\music
I would
d:
cd music
for instance.
Correct
When cd'ing a path on a different drive, you'll then need to get into that drive in a separate command.
cd D:\XXX
D:
or
D:
cd XXX
will both work.
thanks.. i knew it was something silly i had forgotten how to do...
If you want to change the drive in the same command you'd need to use the SWITCH /D
cd/d F:\Movies
-DG
