This also works in OSX (Dragging a file or directory from Finder to Terminal window).

Also in Linux (with gnome, and gnome-terminal anyway; not xterm).

Also, from a windows cmd window, to bring up an explorer window on the current directory, type the command
explorer .

Dear David,
cd command follow by path only work if new path in same drive, otherwise it will not work. Worked command is cd /d follow by path. It will work for new path in same drive or not in same drive

if you want you can also open the command console in the C: drive directly without using “cd\” by adding a string value to the registry named “Autorun”.

Great trick thanks.
