The command F: is not changing the prompt to local drive from c to f.
Before it would happen easily but suddenly the command has stopped working .
What is the reason behind this behaviour?

You need to use the /d switch:
cd /d f:
or just type
f:
without the /d switch, the directory is changed, but not the disk, if you switch the disk you'll see that the directory has changed:
c:\srv> cd f:
F:\
c:\srv> cd f:\dropbox
c:\srv> f:
f:\Dropbox>

When i write nul.> on cmd I get:
Access is denied.
How can I make a file on the C drive? I tried to use the echo.> command but it doesn't work.
At the beginning open the command prompt "Run as administrator" and press enter for each line..
cd\
type nul > hellofile.txt
echo.>hellofile.txt
The root of the system drive has restricted access, requiring elevated permissions to write to it. The same is true of some subfolders.
To create a file on the C drive therefore, you should create it in a subfolder to which you have access.

I cant go to my desktop using cd command.
There is
no such file or directory
error.
What am I doing wrong?
Try using an absolute path like cd /user/home/*YOUR_USERNAME*/Desktop please be advised that Unix bash is case sensitive.
If this don't work you can still run the ls - all command in your home directory to see all folders and files inside.
If you see the "Desktop" folder and just can't change into the directory try using sudo cd ~/Desktop
Hope that helps.

I am able to copy files and all its subdirectories using this command line in cmd
xcopy /s c:\users\desktop f:\desktopFiles
However, I don't want to copy media files like mp3 or mp4. Is there a command line for that. Thanks!
Create file with the extensions you don't want to copy, i.e.:
excludedExtensions.txt
.mp4\
.mp3\
Then you can use:
xcopy /s /exclude:excludedExtensions.txt c:\users\desktop f:\desktopFiles

When I tried to use list ls on a Windows command prompt, the system doesn't recognize it. I already added C:\Windows\System32 in the path.
Use the command dir to list all the directories and files in a directory; ls is a unix command.

I have a drive with some hidden, some readonly files.. how can I make ALL the files in ALL directories - visible and read/write using the attrib command or windows 10 comannds?
attrib /s /d -s -h -r d:\*.*
should accomplish that task. d:\ being the start directory.
The /d should process directories in addition to files.
