When you attempt to use the CD command to change directories to a UNC path, you receive the following error:
CMD does not support UNC paths as current directories.
Although you can map a drive, use the CD command to change to the new drive, then disconnect after you’re done working in the UNC location, this approach is cumbersome. A better approach is to use the Pushd command. For example,
pushd raptorshareshare
The Pushd command automatically maps a drive and navigates to it. If you run the “net use” command after you run Pushd, you’ll see a new drive mapping. After you’re done working in the UNC location, use the Popd command to navigate back to your original network location before you ran Pushd.
