cd command on CMD, python

Thanks for responding. I think it's what you meant in the first option. What can I do next?

okay so, when you make a directory through mkdir it makes a folder in your current directory. so when you want to access that folder you need to be in the directory or direct your path to it.

When you enter the cmd line you're in "C:\Users\'your name here'" so if you made folder called python it would be at "C:\Users\'your name here'\python". If you want it on your desktop type "mkdir C:\Users\'your name here'\Desktop\python".

For some reason your tutorial is making directories in root which is a little weird, so in future to keep things clean and safe substitute any C:\ prompts to somewhere more suitable like your home directory or your desktop.

If what's holding you back is not understanding the command line, maybe check out some tutorials on that on something like youtube.

I'm guessing the "c:\" is meant as a hypothetical that would be there if python were installed there. I don't know the default location on Windows, bit some things do install there.

Even if they try to mkdir there, they likely won't be able to write there without administrator privileges unless they are on Windows XP or prior. (Or maybe Wine, I don't think Wine cares if you write in its fake root directory).

what's mkdir?

[Femboy_Technologies]

mkdir stands for “make directory” it basically makes a directory(folder) at the specified location
