on my prompt it says     c:\user\user     I cant seem to get back to the root  C:\   it says C:\users\user
  
even if I try to type       \program files    i.e   C:\user\user\program files\bitcoin it says

"c:\ program" is not recognized as an internal or external command operable program or batch file

the path is     C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin    and its the same, I cant get off the  c:\users\user  prompt   .     ahhhhhhhh

that's all pretty basic stuff... it looks to me like you did not include the quotes i specified in my example?
Also, if bitcoin core is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin instead of C:\Program Files\Bitcoin, you'll need to adapt the example to the correct path.

I googled this link for you, it's a basic tutorial on how to use the command prompt: http://www.cs.princeton.edu/courses/archive/spr05/cos126/cmd-prompt.html

An other option would be to use windows explorer, navigate to the folder containing bitcoin-qt.exe, right click, make a shortcut, edit the shortcut and add the startup parameter in the shortcut-edit-gui Wink
