What is Command Prompt?

 Command Prompt is the command-line

shell, which is based on the 1980s

Microsoft

Disk operation

system

(MS-DOS). It is a simple win32 application

that helps users to interact

with

the Windows operating system using

text-based commands and parameters.

Command prompt has built-in commands

to run various tasks, most of which can be

executed as an administrator.

Command prompt is officially known

as Windows Command Processor, but

sometimes it is also referred to as the

MD prompt or command shell, or even

by its filename, amd.exe. Therese Stowell

developed the first version of MD for

Windows NT in December 1987. It is

available in almost all versions of Windows
