Here are some alternatives: Absolute paths: Specify the complete path to the desired location (e.g., "C:\\Users\\YourUsername\\Documents\\My Project" on Windows). Tab completion (available in some shells): Start typing the directory name, press Tab, and the shell will suggest the complete path. Environment variables (advanced): Define a variable with a descriptive name and the desired path (e.g., "MY_PROJECT_DIR=C:\\Users\\YourUsername\\Documents\\My Project") and then use the variable name in your commands (e.g., "cd %MY_PROJECT_DIR%").
