Open the folder associated with the Command Prompt's working directory?

Question

I am wondering if there is a command one could type into The Windows Command Prompt which would cause Windows Explorer to open a folder set at the Command Prompt's current working directory?

(This is kind of the opposite problem where people want to open the Command Prompt from the folder. I.e., opposite of this: How can I open a command prompt in current folder with a keyboard shortcut?)

explorer %cd%

Should do it. %cd% will always print the current directory.
