Change directory in Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt

Make sure you are on the correct drive, as that is a normal reason for cd to
fail. You are actually setting cd, but not seeing it due to the default
drive (if you are on a network, your network admin often has this set up to
your share drive on the network).

So I need to change my default drive? I am on a network but I have admin
rights on my machine so I can change whatever I want.
 
You can do that, or simply change the drive to where you need the CD. It is
simple DOS. With default drive of, let's say H, you have the following:

H:>

If you type in a cd on C:, you get the following:

H:>cd c:\temp
H:>

You are still on H:, so the cd does not show up. THen type C

H:>C:
C:\temp>

If you need some pointers, look for a DOS command prompt tutorial.
