You still use the command prompt for some tasks. It world be practical if you could
automatically switch to a particular directory when you call up the prompt.
1) Go to START then choose RUN and type regedit.
2) HKEY_CURRENT_USER\
3) Software\
4) Microsoft\
5) CommandProcessor
6) Go to Edit, New, Expandable string value
7) Enter 'Autorun' and press enter
8) The new value type must now be 'REG_EXPAND_SZ'
9) To edit the new entry, double click 'Autorun'.
10) In the value field, enter the command that should be automatically executed
when the command prompt starts.
11) example: cd c:\Windows
*The above value takes you directly to the 'Windows' directory on starting the
command prompt. Similary, you can start up the command prompt at any other directory
of your choice.
