You are trying to change directory through a file i.e. settings.py. This is
obviously not a directory but a file. In any case, it does not exist within
that directory level.

What you need to do is:
$ cd winker
$ ls

And you will see your setting file

I am assuming your directory structure is as follows:

winker
|
|- manage.py
|- winker
    |
    |- settings.py
    |- urls.py
    |- wsgi.py

Note that there are two winker directories. Pay attention to the current
directory that you are located in.
