DOSBox is an emulator for dos. https://www.dosbox.com/ In XP it is called "Command Prompt". jaclaz Well played, jaclaz. For me DOSBox is the MS-DOS Prompt even on 9x Systems.

And it makes sense that DosBox would name their project that. But it is still a pain :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On XP it is NOT DOS, it is a command prompt which uses the cmd.exe command processor of a NT system (which is NOT DOS) which is largely (but not entirely) capable of running DOS programs. That is the whole point. If you prefer, there is NO DOS (or MS-DOS) on a NT system. jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
