# Command Line Access to Motive

### Command Line Access

Just like opening any other applications running on Windows, you can start Motive by typing its directory into the Command Prompt. Also, if there is any particular Motive TTP project that you consistently work with, you can type in the directory to the TTP file following the Motive Directory to access the file. If opening a same project is a regular workflow, you can also create a batch file (.bat) from the command lines as well. Just type in the command prompt entries into a text editor and save the text file with a .bat extension.
