Types of Commands:

Internal Commands:

            Internal commands are built into the command prompt (CMD) itself, as opposed to external commands, which are located in separate executable files. These commands are used to perform various tasks, such as creating and deleting directories, copying and moving files, and displaying the contents of a directory. Some examples of internal commands include:

     Example

            CD (change directory) 

            COPY (copy files or directories)

            DEL (delete files or directories)

            DIR (display the contents of a directory)

            ECHO (display a message or the contents of a variable)

            MKDIR (create a new directory)

            RMDIR (delete an empty directory)

These commands can be used directly from the command prompt, without the need to specify the path to an executable file.

External Commands

            External commands in CMD are commands that are not built into the command prompt itself but are located in separate executable files. These commands are usually found in the system's PATH, which is a list of directories that the command prompt searches for executable files. Some examples of external commands include:

Eaxmple

        IPCONFIG (display network configuration)

        PING (test network connectivity)

        TASKLIST (display the list of running processes)

        NETSTAT (display network status)

        TRACERT (trace the route to a remote host)

        FORMAT (format a disk drive)

        CHKDSK (check a disk for errors)

These commands are not built into the command prompt and need to specify the path to the executable file in order to run them.

REGEDIT4

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]

"CompletionChar"=dword:00000009

          Why Do not change Directory Write cd D:\ in cmd?

• When you enter the command "cd D:" in the Command Prompt on Windows, it should change the current Directory to the root directory of the D: drive. However, if the command does not work, there could be a few reasons why:

1. The D: Drive may not be accessible or exist on your system.
2. The D: Drive may be used by another program or process, preventing you from accessing it.
3. The command prompt may not have the necessary permissions to access the D: Drive.

                MD Test=Test2 will create two folders, 'Test' and 'Test2' {If you do not use invited coma(“ ”) hare created two folders}.
