windows 7
I mean, if i'm in the folder foo, and within it there's another folder called bar, and whithin bar folder, there's a file.bat.
In this scenario, i can't just type foo/bar/file.bat. I have to type the entire path to get the file executed, i.e (c:/foo/bar/file.bat).
Is there a way i can do just foo/bar/file.bat and execute the file.bat, without having to type the entire path to the file.bat?
P.S: I'm talking about Windows Command Prompt.
Sorry for my bad english.
Windows can hide certain fonts based on your language settings. So basically if the font is not designed for your selected settings it will also not be displayed. In your situation it might be the case that the language settings differ between accounts. You can check or uncheck this option in the font settings which can be found in the configuration panel.
You can also hide/unhide individual fonts in the list of fonts in the configuration panel. Check there if that particular font is hidden and if so "show" it back.
Start / Run / regedit
Navigate to the following keys in turn:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmd
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmd
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmd
Under each in the right pane you'll see a REG_SZ string value called Extended. Just rename this to something else (in case you want to easily undo the change) or delete it (just that value):
Now you can simply right-click a drive or directory and have the Command Prompt option show up without having to press Shift.

Your example code has forwards slashes instead of backward slashes (if you didn't notice).
Yes, if you are in foo with command prompt you can run
bar\file.batto open that batch script. You would not run as you say "foo\bar\file.bat" because you are already in foo, as you have said. But if you are in a different node (i.e C:\foo\john) and want to access bar\file.bat you must run..\bar\file.batIf you want to navigate to any folder you may run
cd [nextfoldernodename]. For example if you are in C: you may runcd footo get in the foo folder, or if you typecd foo\baryou can get in the bar folder. (cd stands for change directory).
