How to go to a certain path (folder containing a certain file) in Total Commander?

Question

Let's say I have a certain - very long - path to a file (let's say: c:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ ) and I would like to quickly access that directory in Total Commander. Is there any dialog box / keyboard shortcut which would allow me to simply paste the path there and enter that location, instead of the tedious process of digging into the directory tree?

Solution

If you click twice on the top, where current path is displayed, it will change to edit field, where you can just enter new path and press Enter.

You can switch to edit mode if cursor is on the [..] and you press Shift+F6.

Another option is to write path into command line, preceding it with cd like this:

cd path_to_the_directory

then press enter.

re: cd path_to_the_directory: in his case, because the path contains spaces, he would have to quote it: cd "c:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\".

Actually I checked it using TC 7.50a in Vista and Windows 7 and quotes are not needed even with spaces in the path. I'm speaking of TC command line of course. :)

Thanks, I don't know that great Shift+F6 shortcut :)

TC must have changed a lot since then, none of these work anymore

I tested and all three options still work in TC 10.00 in Windows 10.

So in practice Home and then subsequently Shift+F6 does the job.
