CMD - Auto Run Commands On Startup

How to make your command prompt run pre-specified commands as soon as it starts up.

Reg Key (regedit):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command Processor

Inside the above Reg Key, create a new "Expandable String Value" named "AutoRun" if you don't have one already. Double click it and type in your commands. Separate commands with the "&" sign.

Nice, 5/5 ^_^

Just wondering what would you type to change text color?

[MasterJake777]

The "color" command does that. Open cmd and type "color /?" to get the help info with all of the color commands.
