I can't change directory through the "cd" command in a cmd.exe tab, each time I do that prompt results in the original directory. I can change it in Powershell, though

Ah, figured it’d be something like this. CMD doesn’t let you change drives using cd. You’ll just want to enter E:. You can use cd to set the working directory for each drive individually and switch between them with the drive letter commands.
