I found [this](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/f-path-holds-extra/8524/7) thread, found that there's an undocumented feature `/fp:"folder path"`. One user said Microsoft already provides APIs to normalize paths.
Visual Studio Code, Notepad++, Sublime Text can all parse folder paths correctly without any issue.
```auto
rem Start VSCode in current folder
code .
rem Open Example.txt in Notepad++
npp .\Example.txt
```
Can Mp3Tag do the same with or without `/fp`?
I want to open a relative file or a folder within CMD.exe **without any .BAT file** like so:
```auto
cd /D "D:\My Music\"
rem Select one song
"C:\...\mp3tag.exe" ".\Songs from Youtube\Hello World.mp3"
rem Select a relative folder
"C:\...\mp3tag.exe" ".\Songs from Youtube"
```
It should look for files in [Current Working Directory (Wikipedia)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Working_directory).
**It should not look in Program Files because NO music file in Program Files.**

This is not quite true.
The command line switch is actually "`/fp:"" `
There is a section in the help [dedicated to the command line parameters](https://docs.mp3tag.de/command-line).
So in respect to specification, your observation is correct: a relative path does not work as a full-qualified path is required - and in that respect MP3tag behaves like specified.
