Solve : commands are disabled...!!!!? |
|
Answer» whenever i type any command such as help in my dos prompt , i get the following message...Quote 'help' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.... Seems as if some or more commands are disabled...how can i re-enable them.... plzzz...do help..... my operating system is WINDOWS xp and dos version is 5.1.2600Check your path. Type path at the command prompt then hit ENTER. Check to see if c:\windows\system32 is listed. You may have run a program that overrode the system path. Sometimes closing the command prompt and re-opening it will clear the problem. It intrigues me, what could override the path to system32 . When changing the path it's better to concatenate whatever directory onto the EXISTING path. Code: [Select]SET path=%path%;c:\user If a batch file attempts something like this: Code: [Select]set path=c:\user the path remains in effect until the command window is closed. Batch code cannot make permanent changes to environment variables, so the NEXT time a command window is opened, the system environment is re-established to the default values. PS. Not saying this is the OP problem. Only a possibility. |
