How to Open a File Browser From Your Current Command Prompt/Terminal Directory in Windows? Ever been doing some work at the command line when you realized… it would be a lot easier if I could just use the mouse for this task? One command later, you’ll have a window open to the same place that you’re at.



This same tip works in more than one operating system, so we’ll detail how to do it in every way we know how.



Just type the follow command into your command prompt:



explorer .







Note: You could actually just type “start .” instead.



And you’ll then see a file browsing window set to the same directory you were previous at. And yes, this screenshot is from Vista, but it works the same in every version of Windows.
