2.) Why is running the cmd.exe commands from the File Explorer address bar so popular?

Running `cmd.exe` commands from File Explorer address bar can be popular for several reasons:

1. Quick Access:

By directly running `cmd.exe` commands from File Explorer address bar, users can Quickly access Command Prompt without having to open it from the Start menu or Search.

2. Efficiency:

For users who frequently use the Command Prompt, running commands directly from the File Explorer address bar can be more efficient than navigating menus or opening other applications.

3. Familiarity:

Some users are familiar with the Command Prompt and may prefer to execute commands directly rather than using a graphical interface.

5. Workflow Customization:

For users who want to optimize their workflow, running `cmd.exe` commands from the File Explorer address bar can be part of their preferred way of working.

However, it's important to note that running commands from File Explorer's address bar poses certain risks, especially if users don't know exactly what they're doing. Commands executed inaccurately can potentially cause data loss or other problems. Users should therefore be careful and ensure that they understand the commands they want to execute.

3.) Who most often uses cmd.exe commands directly from the File Explorer address bar?

It is difficult to identify a specific group of users who most frequently use `cmd.exe` commands directly from the File Explorer address bar, as it depends on users' individual working styles, preferences and technical know-how. However, there are some groups of users where this practice may be more common:

1. Developers and IT professionals:

You could use direct execution of `cmd.exe` commands from the address bar to quickly access the Command Prompt and execute commands while navigating File Explorer.

2. Power Users and Enthusiasts:

People who enjoy experimenting with their computers and optimizing their workflows might use running `cmd.exe` commands directly from the File Explorer address bar as part of their preferred way of working.

Overall, the use of `cmd.exe` commands from the File Explorer address bar can be common in different industries and among different user groups, especially among people who frequently use the Command Prompt and want to streamline their workflow.

4.) Do other operating systems also have the option of starting commands directly from the File Explorer address bar?

The ability to launch commands directly from the File Explorer address bar, as is possible on Windows, is not as common on other operating systems. Here are some operating systems and their approaches:

1. Linux:

Most Linux distributions offer similar functionality to the Command Prompt on Windows, but it is more common to open a separate terminal application to execute commands. However, some desktop environments such as GNOME provide a "Run" feature that allows users to run commands directly, similar to Windows. However, this feature is usually not built into the File Explorer address bar.

2. macOS:

macOS, which is based on Unix, has the Terminal, an application that allows users to execute commands. There is no native functionality to run commands directly from the Finder address bar (the File Explorer equivalent on macOS).

3. Chrome OS:

Chrome OS offers Chrome Shell (crosh) as a terminal application for developers and advanced users. However, there is no native way to run commands directly from File Explorer's address bar.

Overall, executing commands directly from the File Explorer address bar is a specific feature of Windows that is not present by default in other operating systems. However, other operating systems offer similar functionality through separate terminal applications or command line tools.
