How can I open a cmd window in a specific location? – Stack Overflow

Posted by jpluimers on 2019/03/19

Based on [WayBack] How can I open a cmd window in a specific location? – Stack Overflow:

cmd /K "pushd ""D:\Versioned Stuff\wiert.me"""

The quoting is required for paths having spaces, so I always include them just in case I ever have a path with spaces.

If I want it with bash, then I run it as follows:

cmd /K "pushd ""D:\Versioned Stuff\wiert.me""" && "C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe"
