What is the use of win command in command prompt. No action is done by that,but still dos accepts it. Have anyone tried it. Can anyone answer this.
mine says win doesn't exist. are you talking command prompt in 7 or a dos 6.0 install on something else? if you just type help you get all commands that it understands, if yours understands win then you have some other environment variable set up for it to understand that.


In old versions of Windows (Windows 98 and older) the win.com command would start Windows from the DOS prompt. In all NT platform systems it does nothing and exists only for compatibility with old batch files. As it is a 16 bit command it does not exist on 64 bit systems.
