Thank you for looking at my post.
In my start menu, I notice the DOS icon, in with others in the last programs recently used.
I dont remember having used it, so why is it there?

It must have been used for something, for it to be there right?
Will a history or something tell me what it was used for or when?you used it when you were talking with that person on the phone- the alleged MICROSOFT tech.


Remember? You said he wanted you to run cmd... etc.Im no Guru,

You May remove the Command Prompt from the list:
(Point to Command Prompt icon, right click and choose "remove from List")

Thanks BC_Programmer, I might have thought that except I didn't actually do any of the things he wanted me to...
I didn't even write them down. I was just being inquisitive and ARGUMENTATIVE with him to test his resolve.
Turns out he didn't have much, though I must admit I can be RATHER belligerent to people on the phone like that. They, after all were paying for the call. I wanted to keep him on for as long as I could.... but he cracked.

Thank you too billrich, it is annoying just having it there. Haa! That was EASY... gone. Thanks 

Just thinking now what does RUN:  CMD actually do then?opens a command prompt. I myself use it all the time.BC_Programmer.  AH I see. So I would have used that then, to look at a dos program.
I think thats is what might have been the case with that then. I was trying to load some games onto a computer at the time.
I might have tried to look at where the program was or run its .exe file and it might have come up.(maybe)?
