Even if you prefer working at a command prompt, in some cases you might want to switch to the GUI. For example, File Explorer might be more efficient if you have to work with a large number of files that you can’t simply select with a pattern such as *.txt. In such a scenario you probably want to open File Explorer from PowerShell at a specific destination folder.
