Solve : dir \My Documents?

Answer»

I am trying to work at the DOS command PROMPT. EVERY time I type in
C:\ Documents and Settings\Compaq_Owner>dir My Documents

it returns (exactly)
Volume in drive C is PRESARIO
Volume Serial NUMBER is .... (#do you need this?)

Directory of C:\Documents & Settings\Compaq_Owner

Directory of C:\Documents & Settings\Compaq_Owner
File Not Found



My Documents is a large file on my computer but dos is not ALLOWING me to list it out. What can I do?

Thank you
Diane MilinowskiFor usage information on the DIR command, type
Dir /?

Your going to want to do this:

Type:
Dir "My Documents"
(Dir is shorthand for "directory)

To go into the My Documents folder, type in:

Cd "My Documents"
(Cd means "Change Directory")

Any time there is a space in a folder name, or file, you need have it in "Quotation" MARKS.
