Windows equivalent to UNIX pwd

Question

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

Answer 1

This prints it in the console:

echo %cd%

or paste this command in CMD, then you'll have pwd :

(echo @echo off
echo echo ^%cd^%) > C:\WINDOWS\pwd.bat

Answer 2

它是“当前目录”的cd 。

Answer 3

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 4

cd ,

it will give the current directory

D:\Folder\subFolder>cd ,
D:\Folder\subFolder

Answer 5

cd without any parameters is equivalent to pwd on Unix/Linux.

From the console output of typing cd /? :

Type CD without parameters to display the current drive and directory.

Answer 6

You can just type

cd

it will return you the current path.

hmm - pwd works for me on Vista...

Final EDIT : it works for me on Vista because WinAvr installed pwd.exe and added \\Program Files\\WinAvr\\Utils\\bin to my path.

Answer 9

In PowerShell pwd is an alias to Get-Location so you can simply run pwd in it like in bash

It can also be called from cmd like this powershell -Command pwd although cd or echo %cd% in cmd would work just fine

Answer 10

只需在命令行中写入echo %cd% 。

Answer 11

It will show you the current path in the console, use the below command

echo %cd%

Answer 12

使用下面的命令

dir | find "Directory"

Answer 13

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.
