Maybe you know these already but if you do not, I hope the 2 tips I will share here will help you with the command line and Visual Code.

Tip 1: Starting Command Line in a Given Folder

  • Go to the folder where you want the command line to start.
  • Go to the address bar.
  • Write cmd and press Enter.
  • And magically command line will start in that folder with that folder set as the current working directory.

Below you can find snapshots of a sample case.

Tip 2: Starting Visual Code in a Given Folder

After you complete the steps in Tip 1, a command line will start in your current directory. Then you simple type code . and it will start Visual Code in your current directory.
