What happened to   C:\      ( the reg. command Prompt??)

And BTW, to change the place that CMD starts in, right-click it, and change the Start in: value to \ (or C:\; they both yield the same results in your situation).

try type in "cd..&cd.."
and see if you will get in results of C:\>
if you did you got all the answers you need i think.

you moved to the directory C:\ as you wanted and cd.. is the name of moving to another directory in this case C:
