Hello Everyone,
I just need to copy that folder path below, open up a terminal, type "cd <paste in the path of the folder>" First I need to know how to copy folder path in MacOS.
Any help is appreciated.

Option 1. In the Terminal, you type cd, followed by a space, and then simply drag/drop that Finder folder into the Terminal. This will provide the full path to the folder. Press return.
Option 2. Click once on the folder in the Finder, and then press option+cmd+C to copy the folder path to the clipboard, and then cmd+v to paste it behind your cd command. Press return.
Not as convenient, perhaps, as the other methods mentioned, but you can also do "Get info" (command-i) on a folder, then under the "Where" bit of information you can select and copy the path. When pasted it will have the correct unix-type syntax.
Hello Jason,
Just copy the file to the clipboard in the Finder. Then paste into a text-only app like Terminal or BBEdit.
Best way is to create a service contextual menu as per here:

I use this daily, right-click-> services -> copy path.
Best way for you perhaps, but most people will not want to deal with Automator when they can simply drag/drop, or copy/paste as provided in the previous posts.
With MacOS is there any way to copy the full path of a folder?
