How can I change in command prompt directory from C:\ to F:\?

I tried using cd command but when i did ';cd F:\ '; or ';cd F';it doesn't work as it sends me back to C:\



ThxHow can I change in command prompt directory from C:\ to F:\?
cd is 'change directory'... not 'change drive'



Just type



';F:'; and press ENTERHow can I change in command prompt directory from C:\ to F:\?
C:\%26gt; F: %26lt;Enter%26gt;
write ';F:'; and hit %26lt;enter%26gt;



this should take you to drive f:\



Cheers...
jus type in f: (f and colon) then enter
Just type F:\ at your command prompt and hit enter. Then you can use the 'cd' command to open up whatever directories you have on the 'F' drive



The 'cd' command only works for changing directories within the current drive, therefore you can not jump drives using that command.
If you are in dos prompt and the current directory is 'c:', you must put f: only to change to 'f:' directory, like this:



Your command:

c:\%26gt;f:

Dos response:

f:\%26gt;



This Is what you want?

If u want to access your F: drive then simply type

f: (enter)



Or if you want to change your default prompt to f: then u need to type:

prompt f:
C:\%26gt; F: %26lt;Enter%26gt;
From memory 'DIR F:' should work. (no quotes)



Writing 'F:' only works for Windows versions which use MS-DOS for a command prompt. Examples include Win95, Win98, Win98SE, possibly ME).



The NT versions have a different command prompt program, which attempts to resolve the potential security issues with MS-DOS. NT versions of windows include NT4, 2000, XP, Vista.
