    Is it possible in Windows 11 to get Windows File Explorer to act like the command line "dir...


    Without going into Command Prompt I would like to see the folder structure rooted at C:/> display as many folders as will fit on the screen with each folder clickable to show its contents in a scrollable right pane. I would like to have a print option for this data.

    :)

    GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

    Suggestion: /? (-?) and /help (-help) command-line arguments to show a list of all possible arguments in a small window. *Smile Is it possible in Windows 11 to get Windows File Explorer to act like the command line "dir... :)

    Command-line shells, commands like dir /p not working but dir does work

    I am using W'10, Administrative Windows Power Shell, command line.

    When I do a "DIR" it works, but when I add parameters, I get this error message:

    -----------------

    PS C:\> dir /s
    dir : Cannot find path 'C:\s' because it does not exist.
    At line:1 char:1
    + dir /s
    + ~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (C:\s:String) [Get-ChildItem], ItemNotFoundException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PathNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.GetChildItemCommand

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I am just following the syntax from this:

    Windows commands

    What am I doing wrong?
