To change directory in Linux, you can use the cd
command. Here are the steps:
Open a terminal window.
Type
cd
followed by a space and the path to the directory that you want to change to. For example, to change to the directory calledDocuments
in your home directory, type:
bashcd ~/Documents
The ~
symbol is a shorthand for your home directory.
Press Enter.
If the directory exists and you have permission to access it, the terminal will change to the new directory.
To go back to the previous directory, you can use the
cd
command with no arguments, like this:
bashcd
This will take you back to your home directory.
Note that Linux is case sensitive, so make sure that you type the directory name exactly as it appears, including any capitalization or punctuation. Also, relative paths (e.g., ../Documents
) can be used to move up or down the directory hierarchy.
