The command is CD (Change Directory).* You use it like this:
cd C:\Whatever\WhateverElse
Unlike many other commands, you don't have to put quotes around the directory path:
cd C:\Whatever\Whatever Else
is identical to
cd "C:\Whatever\Whatever Else
Also, you don't have to use the full path. If you don't specify the full path, the command works relative to the current directory. Here's an example:
If you're in C:\Users\John, then you can use either of these commands to
get to the desktop:
cd C:\Users\John\Desktop
cd Desktop
Finally, CD is not case sensitive, so
cd Desktop
is the same as
cd desktop
*You can also use CHDIR; they're identical.
