What is CMD?

 "Command Prompt is a command-line interpreter which is used to do special tasks with commands." But this is not done here.

There are two types of the operating system, 

  • GUI (Graphic User Interface)
  • CLI (Command Line Interface)

And command prompt work like CLI, user can do many tasks with lines or command. In CMD, the user can perform one task at a time, and also have to wait for the current task to complete to do the next task.


Basically, the command prompt is a black command screen just like the Dos OS in Windows operating system. In Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, etc. the CMD (Command Prompt) is a .exe (executable) file saved in the Local Disk C directory.  CMD.exe is the main application file Command Prompt.

User can run CMD with two methods:

i. Run command (win+R >> cmd >> ENTER)

ii. Start menu bar >> cmd >> ENTER

User can use many commands for specific tasks which have a long method with graphic, Command can do these tasks in one line.
