There are utilities available which make it easy to drop to a command prompt from any given folder--but you can accomplish the same feat without installing extra software! A Lockergnomie explained this simple process: in Explorer, navigate to where you'd like to start a command prompt. Then, select 'Run' from the Start Menu, type "COMMAND", and press 'Enter'. At the command prompt, type "cd " (without the quotes, but with the added space at the end). Drag & drop the folder from Explorer into the Command Prompt window and hit 'Enter'. You did it, dude!
