How to use MS DOS

MS DOS is an old operating system released in 1981 that was improved upon and used until around 2000. I believe support for MS DOS as an operating system terminated effectively December 31, 2001. It is a command line interface (CLI) operating system, meaning you are supposed to type in commands and the computer will follow them. The most frequently used commands are for file management, and are "dir," "cd," "chdir," and "del." This video shows you how to use these commands for basic file management. If you want more on MS DOS, type HELP in the prompt, and you should get more commands. If you want help on a certain command, type (command)/? or help (command). If these don't help you explore DOS further, you can request a video from me, I would gladly make it. Keep in mind that these commands can be used to make file management batch files as well, which will be in a video soon to come.

@adamdmasi Thats looks like Windows 9.x

[adamdmasi]

Is that Windows XP or Windows 9x? Because Documents and Settings only exists on XP, and only 2000 and later allow you to change directories without using quotes around names with spaces.

Your video needs audio . but yes, more advanced DOS CMDs would be nice.

You'd be the only one with a decent CMD vid, but get some audio
