Expanding a bit, here is an alternative for Windows 10 where multiple aliases can be defined and applied to the Command Prompt upon execution.
Create a file called init.cmd containing aliases on your %USERPROFILE% folder:
init.cmd
Register it to be applied whenever the Command Prompt is executed:
In the Command Prompt, run:
Done
Now the contents of init.cmd will run for executions of cmd.exe namely from:
Taskbar shortcut
WIN+R cmd
By typing cmd in the File Explorer address bar
By running cmd.exe directly from C:\Windows\System32
After registering these settings just remember to close/open:
The Command Prompt so the settings are applied
The File Explorer, if you use to launch the cmd via File Explorer address bar
To unregister it, run:
