Command Prompt Commands

Wednesday July 1, 2009
Anyone who's familiar with the Command Prompt in Windows knows that there's a huge number of commands... and many more than what that helpful help command will tell you about.

I did some research and it turns out there's almost 200 commands available in Command Prompt. That's a lot. There's a few more in Windows 7 than in Windows Vista and a few more there than in Windows XP.

For your command knowledge pleasure: I've included a brief description of each command so hopefully this proves to be more of a resource than a simple listing. I'll be linking to more in depth guides for each command as time permits.

(Be sure to let me know if I missed a command!)
