    , type cmd in the Start Search box, right-click cmd in the Programs list, and then click Run as administrator.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.
  2. At the command prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
    cluster res "RESOURCE_NAME" /priv
    This command will list the current value of the CurrentDirectory property.

    Note In this command, RESOURCE_NAME represents the name of the target resource, such as "cmd Application."
  3. Type the following command, and then press ENTER:
    cluster res "RESOURCE_NAME" /priv CurrentDirectory="NEW_VALUE"
    Note In this command, NEW_VALUE represents a new property value for the CurrentDirectory property.
  4. Bring the resource offline, and then bring the resource back online for the change to take effect.
