How to use PUSHD and POPD

I am getting an "UNC path not supported" error while trying to get files from a shared network drive.

My research tells me that pushd and popd may help, but I can't figure out how to use them correctly.

What are good usage examples for pushd and popd?

The remarks about popd given in microsoft docs is misleading. It says "If you use the popd command, the directory on the top of the stack is removed from the stack and the current directory is changed to that directory.". But actually the current directory changes to the directory currently on the top of the stack.
