Stupid Question - Command Prompt I believe this is the right place. =P
Okay so heres the deal, I put a shortcut on my desktop for Command Prompt, I assigned it a shortcut key as well (for quicker access) now my question is, how do I make it so when I open it via double click (two left clicks) or the shortcut keys, it is evaluated?
It doesn't give me the option under properties. Attachment 25379 EDIT: Also if anyone knows how to get the fonts: Times New Roman and Segoe UI, for font options, that'd also be great.  Registry edit + reboot didn't add them. :'(

Dark,
Did the same thing as you to see if I had the same problem. And, guess what?, I did, and cannot figure out why.
As to the fonts; never used the Registry to enter fonts so I am lost at what you are trying to do. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Pavilion a4302f OS Win 7 Pro x64, VM Win XP, Win7 Pro Sandbox, Kubuntu 11 CPU AMD Athlon(tm) II X4 640 @ 3.0 Gbz Memory 12GB 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2x4GB, 2x2GB Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 4350 HD Graphics/Audio with 512MB Sound Card Realtek High Definition Audio Monitor(s) Displays 1.

The registry thing is suppose to allow more fonts (as opposed to the 2 or 3 standard ugly ones). Though it didn't add either of those fonts I wanted. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Custom | Whitebox OS Windows 7 Ultimate, OS X 10.7, Ubuntu 11.04 CPU Intel E6750 @ 3.80GHz Motherboard Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3L (Revision 1.1) Memory 2x2GB & 2x1GB (6GB) OCZ Reaper 1066MHz @ 1080MHz Graphics Card EVGA nVidia GTX 260 896mb (216 Core) FTW Edition Sound Card Realtek ALC888 Monitor(s) Displays 21" VIZIO TV Screen Resolution 1680x1050 @ 60Hz Keyboard Logitech Wireless S520 Mouse Logitech Wireless S520 - Microsoft Wireless Arc Mouse PSU Corsair 750W Case NZXT Nemesis Elite Cooling Thermaltake SpinQ Hard Drives Western Digital WD6401AALS - 640GB
