C:\ is the working directory, which in this case is the root directory of the system drive. If this is not “C:\”, type ‘*c:*’ to set the system drive to the working directory.
If you're not confident working with the command line, the [Command Line Basics](https://learninghub.ons.gov.uk/course/view.php?id=494) course on the ONS Learning Hub is a really good resource.
