os2fan2 Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Win95cmd comes in two versions: NT4 = 233k and NT5 = 307k. These were released as part of the SDK, but have become loose-distributed.If you want functionality to match the 2K/XP cmd.exe, ye need to download the larger one (NT5). The smaller one emulates NT4's cmd.exe. In any case, putting it into \windows\command is a useful thing, because ye might want start | run | cmd.I don't think it's a good thing to set COMSPEC globally to it, but you do need to set comspec in its session for things to work properly, ye use this reg file.[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]"AutoRun"="set comspec=c:\\windows\\command\\cmd.exe""PathCompletionChar"=0x00000009"CompletionChar" = 0x00000009The first sets the comspec (ye need to change the path and exefile name, if Windows is not in c:\windows.) Pathcompletion sets tab to scroll through partly completed paths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PROBLEMCHYLD Posted July 29, 2008 Author Share Posted July 29, 2008 (edited) What about this reg fileREGEDIT4[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]"AutoRun"="SET COMSPEC=C:\\WINDOWS\\Cmd.exe"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\.cmd]@="cmdfile"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile]@="Windows NT Command Script""EditFlags"=hex:d0,04,00,00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell]@=""[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell\open]@="""EditFlags"=hex:00,00,00,00[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell\open\command]@="C:\\WINDOWS\\Cmd.exe /C \"%1\" %*"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell\print]@=""[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell\print\command]@="C:\\WINDOWS\\NOTEPAD.EXE /p %1"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell\edit]@="&Edit"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shell\edit\command]@="C:\\WINDOWS\\NOTEPAD.EXE %1"[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shellex][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shellex\PropertySheetHandlers][HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\shellex\PropertySheetHandlers\{86F19A00-42A0-1069-A2E9-08002B30309D}]@=""[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\CLASSES\cmdfile\DefaultIcon]@="C:\\WINDOWS\\SYSTEM\\shell32.dll,-153" Edited July 29, 2008 by PROBLEMCHYLD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
os2fan2 Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 That works too. It just does not handle pipes though.Solution: Use both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3dnowex Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 the version of win95cmd.exe is 5.00.2144.1,seems from Windows 2000,Can any body find one in Windows XP sp2(5.10.2600,or hihger)?3Q! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
os2fan2 Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 cmd.exe in Windows 2k is the same as the one in xp. So the 5.00. version will handle all of xp stuff.I suspect also that there is no version to match xp, since by this time, development on the win9x line had largely stopped.

PROBLEMCHYLD Posted October 17, 2011 Author Share Posted October 17, 2011 How do I change this to inf format?REGEDIT4[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]"AutoRun"="set comspec=c:\\windows\\command\\cmd.exe""PathCompletionChar"=0x00000009"CompletionChar"=0x00000009; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jds Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 (edited) Another alternative CMD.EXE can be found in ReactOS, version 0.3.1 (or earlier, for W9X compatibility).Neither version supports the "for /f" option. Otherwise, quite handy.BTW, for the MS (WIN95CMD.EXE) version :1) Caps Lock is treated as a Shift Lock (bug).2) This is what I use for the Pipe Work-around (based on Charles Dye) :REGEDIT4[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]"AutoRun"="set comspec=e:\\windows\\cmd.exe""CompletionChar"=dword:00000009Joe.

Steven W Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Forgive me if this is a stupid question, but I'd like to know if it's possible to set WIN95CMD.EXE as the default command interpreter in Windows 98? Would the Shell command in config.sys allow for that? Would Windows still boot? What would the consequences be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would the Shell command in config.sys allow for that? Would Windows still boot? What would the consequences be?It is not a stupid question. It only shows that you skipped over the previous posts without really reading them. You CANNOT have Win95cmd.exe as the DOS command processor.You can have it as the default processor once in GUI mode (or, if you prefer, when you open a command prompt from a booted Windows 98, NOT when you boot to DOS 7.1).This is the idea behind setting the comspec:jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
