Windows equivalent to UNIX pwd

Question

How do I find the local path on windows in a command prompt?

Answer 1

You can simply put "." the dot sign. I've had a cmd application that was requiring the path and I was already in the needed directory and I used the dot symbol.

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

Open notepad as administrator and write:

@echo %cd%

Save it in c:\windows\system32\ with the name "pwd.cmd" (be careful not to save pwd.cmd.txt)

Then you have the pwd command.

Answer 3

C:\Documents and Settings\Scripter>echo %cd% C:\Documents and Settings\Scripter

C:\Documents and Settings\Scripter>

for unix use pwd command

Current working directory
