DOS LEARNING to handle the files (COMMAND PROMPT)

(1) click on START go to RUN and type CMD.EXE
(2) press ALT+TAB (this will enlarge the DOS window into full screen)
(3) type CD.. again and again till you get to the c drive (like C:\>)
(4) now type DIR (it will show all files & folders in C drive now look for the WINDOWS folder)
(5) type CD WINDOWS (it will change patch C:\> to C:\ windows> it means now windows folder has opened)
(6) type DIR again (you will find a long list of files passed with the blink of eye )
(7) to see all the files and folders in windows folder, type DIR/P (it pauses the flow of files after one screen )
(8) find the system32 folder, if you can’t then type simply CD SYSTEM32 (now the path is changed into C:\windows\system32>
(9) type DIR ( you will see a very long list of files exist in the system32 folder)
(10) To check the files and in trying to find some specific files, different characters are used with DIR command after forward slash (/) these are called switches, write these commands to understand switches:
DIR/P (Pauses after each screen full information) DIR/W (shows files in Wide format)
DIR/AH (shows all files with the Attribute Hidden)
DIR/AR (shows all files with the Attribute Read only)
DIR/AS (shows all files with the Attribute System)
DIR/AA (shows all files with the Attribute Achieve)
DIR/ON (shows all files in alphabetic Order Name wise) DIR/O-N (Reverse output)
DIR/OS (shows all files in the Order of Size smallest first) DIR/O-S (Reverse output)
DIR/OE (shows all files in alphabetic Order by the extension) DIR/O-E (Reverse output)
DIR/OD (shows all files in the Order of Date oldest first) Dir/O-D (Reverse Output)
DIR/B (shows files in Bare format )
DIR/S DIR/L DIR/X DIR/Q DIR/T DIR/4
(Check these commands and consider the result by your own)
You can also combine these commands switches with each other
e.g. DIR/W/P (shows files in Wide format And Pauses the flow of files)
now type CLS (this command will Clear The Screen)
What are the results of these commands? Think!
DIR/ON/P DIR/OS/W DIR/OS/W/P DIR/OD/ON/OS/P DIR/AH/AR/P
(11) There are two characters question mark (?) and asteric (*) which are called wild cards they are
Used to find out the files which names or extensions are unknown, type these commands to understand:
DIR *.EXE (displays all files which names are whatever but extension is .EXE)
DIR A*.* (displays all files which names start with A and extension is whatever)
DIR C??C.EXE (displays all files which name consists of 4 characters in which middle two characters are unknown and extension is .EXE)
DIR A*Z.E* (displays all files which name starts with A, ends with Z, middle characters are whatever and the extension’s 1st letter is E)
What is the result of these commands? Think!
DIR *A*.DLL DIR CH???K.EXE DIR *A*T*B.* DIR N*RR*R.EXE
DIR *.* DIR A*.D* DIR ?A?.* DIR *TASK*.exe
You can also combine switches and wildcards to get more accurate results, Check these commands in DOS:
DIR/P *.exe (it will show all .exe files and may pause the each running screen)
DIR/P/W A*.* (it will show all files of any extension which names starts with A and may be shown in wide format and pause the screen each time)
Now what is the result of these commands? Think!
DIR/AH C*B* DIR/ON/P A*Z.* DIR/O-S/W/P *.DLL DIR/B/P ?A????.EXE
DIR/AR/O-D/P *S*.D* DIR/AA/B/P *M*N*.* DIR *A*E*I*.*

Make some other files like LETTER.TXT APPLICATION.TXT DIALOGUE.TXT and save it in the same path e.g. D:\PAKISTAN\LETTER.TXT
To close the EDIT program go to FILE menu and click on EXIT
(18) COPY is the command in DOS which is used to copy the files from one path to another. It is also used to combine text files and make a new file. suppose if you want to copy STORY.TXT from D drive and Pakistan folder (D:\PAKISTAN) to C Drive then you may write this command in DOS:
COPY D:\PAKISTAN\ C:\
It will show the output that “1 FILE COPIED”
And what if you want to copy all .TXT files from D:\PAKISTAN\ TO C:\?
Type COPY D:\PAKISTAN *.TXT C:\ (HINT: you can also use wildcards * ? with the files like in the above command)

NTFS vs. FAT

To NTFS or not to NTFS—that is the question. But unlike the deeper questions of life, this one isn't really all that hard to answer. For most users running Windows XP, NTFS is the obvious choice. It's more powerful and offers security advantages not found in the other file systems. But let's go over the differences among the files systems so we're all clear about the choice. There are essentially three different file systems available in Windows XP: FAT16, short for File Allocation Table, FAT32, and NTFS, short for NT File System.


FAT16
The FAT16 file system was introduced way back with MS–DOS in 1981, and it's showing its age. It was designed originally to handle files on a floppy drive, and has had minor modifications over the years so it can handle hard disks, and even file names longer than the original limitation of 8.3 characters, but it's still the lowest common denominator. The biggest advantage of FAT16 is that it is compatible across a wide variety of operating systems, including Windows 95/98/Me, OS/2, Linux, and some versions of UNIX. The biggest problem of FAT16 is that it has a fixed maximum number of clusters per partition, so as hard disks get bigger and bigger, the size of each cluster has to get larger. In a 2–GB partition, each cluster is 32 kilobytes, meaning that even the smallest file on the partition will take up 32 KB of space. FAT16 also doesn't support compression, encryption, or advanced security using access control lists.

FAT32
The FAT32 file system, originally introduced in Windows 95 Service Pack 2, is really just an extension of the original FAT16 file system that provides for a much larger number of clusters per partition. As such, it greatly improves the overall disk utilization when compared to a FAT16 file system. However, FAT32 shares all of the other limitations of FAT16, and adds an important additional limitation—many operating systems that can recognize FAT16 will not work with FAT32—most notably Windows NT, but also Linux and UNIX as well. Now this isn't a problem if you're running FAT32 on a Windows XP computer and sharing your drive out to other computers on your network—they don't need to know (and generally don't really care) what your underlying file system is.

The Advantages of NTFS
The NTFS file system, introduced with first version of Windows NT, is a completely different file system from FAT. It provides for greatly increased security, file–by–file compression, quotas, and even encryption. It is the default file system for new installations of Windows XP, and if you're doing an upgrade from a previous version of Windows, you'll be asked if you want to convert your existing file systems to NTFS. Don't worry. If you've already upgraded to Windows XP and didn't do the conversion then, it's not a problem. You can convert FAT16 or FAT32 volumes to NTFS at any point. Just remember that you can't easily go back to FAT or FAT32 (without reformatting the drive or partition), not that I think you'll want to.

The NTFS file system is generally not compatible with other operating systems installed on the same computer, nor is it available when you've booted a computer from a floppy disk. For this reason, many system administrators, myself included, used to recommend that users format at least a small partition at the beginning of their main hard disk as FAT. This partition provided a place to store emergency recovery tools or special drivers needed for reinstallation, and was a mechanism for digging yourself out of the hole you'd just dug into. But with the enhanced recovery abilities built into Windows XP (more on that in a future column), I don't think it's necessary or desirable to create that initial FAT partition.

When to Use FAT or FAT32
If you're running more than one operating system on a single computer, you will definitely need to format some of your volumes as FAT. Any programs or data that need to be accessed by more than one operating system on that computer should be stored on a FAT16 or possibly FAT32 volume. But keep in mind that you have no security for data on a FAT16 or FAT32 volume—any one with access to the computer can read, change, or even delete any file that is stored on a FAT16 or FAT32 partition. In many cases, this is even possible over a network. So do not store sensitive files on drives or partitions formatted with FAT file systems.

Hey this time no registry trick even though there are ways in registry to do it. In earlier operating systems only those CD that had autorun.inf file in their root directory were able to execute on its own but with advent of WINDOWS XP it has become possible with just about anything. Well sometimes it is good but there are other times when you want to avoid this part of automation. What would I do. Simply press SHIFT key when you enter a CD in your CD drive. It won't Auto play. For those of you, who do want a registry hack. Here it is:
Open Registry and navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer] and look for key "NoDriveTypeAutoRun" and set its value to 185 (decimal). This would stop autoplay.

Always Take backup of the registry before making any registry trick

improve on computer shutdown time

How to improve on shutdown time ? Close apps automatically & quickly at shutdown tip:

Open Registry by going to START-RUN and typing REGEDIT. Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\CONTROL PANEL\DESKTOP and look for AutoEndTasks. On my computer default value is 0. Change it to 1. Thats all. Further more you can reduce the time it takes for Windows to issue kill directive to all active/hung applications.
In doing this only constraint that you should make sure exists is that HungAppTimeout is greater than WaitToKillAppTimeout. Change the values of WaitToKillAppTimeout to say 3500 (since default value for HungAppTimeout 5000 and for WaitToKillAppTimeout is 20000)

Always Take backup of the registry before making any registry trick
