Answer:

(a) mkdir /d D:\utilities\recover    

     or

    mkdir D:\utilities\recover    

(b) rd  /s  D:​\software​\arch98

Explanation:

(a) To make a new directory we use the md or mkdir command followed by the name of the directory as follows;

mkdir [name_of_directory]

The name of the directory could also be a relative or absolute path depending on the request.

In the task, the specified directory uses an absolute path given as D:​\​utilities​\​recover. This path is in a drive D. Therefore, if you are in another drive different than D, to run this command, it is a great idea to do that with the /d switch.

In summary:

i. if in drive D, to make a directory D:\utilities\recover, type the following command;

mkdir  D:\utilities\recover    

ii. if otherwise in a different drive, type the following command.

mkdir /d D:\utilities\recover

(b) To delete a directory, we use the rd or rmdir command. If the directory has contents that also need to be deleted, we use the switch /s alongside the rd or rmdir.

In the task given, the directory to be deleted is D:\software\arch98. This includes deleting all of its files too. To do this, type the following command;

rd /s D:\software\arch98
