Notepad++ Console - unable to change the current drive

I've just discovered the NppExec console in Notepad++, which I would really like to use in place of opening up cmd instances. My 'Projects' folder is on the D drive, but Notepad++ is installed in C:/Program Files... I tried changing the current directory like so:

cd /D D:/Projects

This works fine in the normal Windows console, but in NppExec, it sends me to C:/

Any ideas for how I could get into D:/Projects?

Solution

  • You don't need the /D flag:

    cd D:\Projects
