[Solved] Ascend one directory in a hierarchy?

[highend]

Mh,

when I'm in a specific folder in a directory hierarchy, how do I get one hierarchy higher?

I can't use a full path (dir names will be random and I'm already in such a dir when the script is invoked) but
the ascending has to be done relative to the current dir.

e.g. I'm in: D:\Temp\foobar and I want the script to change the dir to D:\Temp

Code: Select all

goto "..\";

is bringing me back to the last directory before I switched (manually) to D:\Temp\foobar
(in this case D:\Users\Admin\Downloads)

Tia,

You can use #523, which is a command for "Up"

or
goto "<curpath>\..";

Ok, script is working now.

Thank you zer0 & Stefan!
