Easy way to open up DOS prompt in a specific directory

With the advent of long directory names, it can be difficult to open up a DOS box and CD to the directory you want

particularly if it is several layers of long names deep.

An easy way is to:

  1. Open up Explorer and highlight the directory you want to be in
  2. Select Run / Command from the Start Menu
  3. Your DOS prompt will now be in the directory you highlighted in Explorer
