If you are trying to cd - change the directory to the .zshrc profile file using the Terminal, you will get the error - "no such file or directory: .zshrc" if you do not provide the correct path to it.
Example:
% cd .zshrc
cd: no such file or directory: .zshrc
Even if you provide the correct path for the .zshrc file which is under the user home directory, still you will get an error,
% cd ~/.zshrc
cd: not a directory: /Users/c2ctech/.zshrc
![cd- no such file or directory- .zshrc cd- no such file or directory- .zshrc](https://code2care.org/zsh/fix-cd-no-such-file-or-directory-zshrc/images/cd- no such file or directory- .zshrc.jpg)
Fix:
This is because .zshrc is not a directory but a file. You need to make use of a text editor like vi or nano to open it, or make use of cat command to display the content of this file.
