Can windows command line support Linux “cd -”?

Under Linux, I can use cd - to return to the last directory. How can I do that on Windows?

You can use the pushd and popd commands.

• pushd <dir> will change directory from location a to location b
• popd will change directory back to directory a

Example:

pushd %TEMP% // go to user's temp dir, and remember pushd \Windows // go to windows dir, and remember popd // go back one dir, in this case the temp dir popd // go back one more dir, in this where you were before temp 

Cmd.exe is an emulation layer for the old MS-DOS, commands are the same :

1. One step backward = cd..
2. All Backward = cd /

For the others look at some Ms-Dos table around the web
