Invalid directory?

J

I installed the latest java kit and cannot CD to the directory.

C:\Program Files\Java> dir
jre1.6.0_06

C:\Program Files\Java> cd jre1.6.0_06
Invalid Directory

I tried it with both a prepended and appended '\' but that didn't work
either. In WINDOWS I can see the folder, save to the folder, and even create
and access folders in the Java folder (where 'jre' resides).

This is a mystery... :/

At the cmd prompt, if it is not already at c:\program files\java, type the
below at the prompt and press Enter. Note: the ^ indicates a space, do not
type the ^.

cd^"c:\program^files\java\jre1.6.0_06" Note: include the quotes.
dir

It didn't work. I recognize that idea as being similar to saving a .txt file
as a .java file - which works. It was a valiant and honorable suggestion
Brian, for which I am thankful. It gave me some hope. Since I can delete
everything Java related and reinstall java I did just that. THAT worked.
