    Command Prompt Not recognizing commands.


    Hi, I'm super sad because I use CMD a lot but its not recognizing regular commands. I have no idea what to do because im more familiar with Terminal on a Macintosh. Thanks.

    If you do for example: xcopy source destination
    It should xcopy from source to destination. But in which folder to find xcopy.exe ?
    Windows searches for xcopy.exe (or .com or .bat) in "current folder". If not found then in folders described in PATH output. Post the output!

    DIR, EXIT and PATH are examples of "internal" commands. They are built-in in cmd.exe (command prompt).
