Answer:
No. Probably not.
An alternative way of doing all this is to use Microsoft's "File Explorer" to navigate to a desired subdirectory (or to create it) and start a command window there. If this is appealing, skip ahead to page 11.

Click Run 

After clicking the "Start" button you should see something similar to the above. (Windows 7 on the left, Windows 8 on the right.)

Question 8:
Click "Run". (Windows 8 option: click "command prompt")
