C:\WINNT\system32>cd \.........\
C:\>cd winnt\system32
The system cannot find the path specified.

I wonder if this is a bug in cmd.exe or a way to get higher than C:\ in
the object tree... Maybe this is a way to access forbidden resources.
"Inside Windows NT" dixit: "Of the directories listed, only
\BaseNamedObjects and \?? are visible to user programs."

Standard Object directories are:
\?? (\DosDevices is a link on it) \BaseNamedObjects \device \driver
\FileSystems  \KnownDlls \nls \ObjectTypes \RPC Control \security
\windows
