Question Why would I want to make directories in Windows 10?

[aarono123]

I'm learning about the command-line interface in Windows 10, and I cannot, for the life of me, fully grasp its concept. I know how to open it and view information such as ipconfig /all. But using the "dir" command throws me at a loss and I'm learning about making new directories. Why would I?

Have you ever made a folder tree in windows? Using File explorer to make a directory looks simple on outside but it actually uses all those commands in CMD behind the scenes to create the directory/folders.

batch files can do lots of things via CMD that would take longer with mouse/KB so knowing how that all works is something valuable to know, I guess.
