How to Increase the Size of Command Prompt Window

Sunday, December 6, 2009 0 comments
The command window shows only 25 lines when it is called up. This is too little to display longer text stretches such as help pages. Here is a simple way to increase the size of the command prompt window and thus increase the number of lines displayed:

Right Click on the upper left corner of the command prompt window and select ‘Properties’.
Then switch to the ‘Layout’ tab. Change the ‘Height’ value under ‘Window Size’
Set it at ‘50’, for instance. You can retain the default width of 80 characters since most editions take this as the default value and have also integrated a line break at this point.


You can also immediately see whether and how the window thus defined fits your screen size in the preview, so that you can make your changes accordingly.
Also increase the ‘Height’ under ‘Screen Buffer Size’ to ‘600’, for instance.

This number indicates the number of lines the command prompt notes and through which you can scroll back. This is most practical for the display of long help texts.
Confirm this setting with ‘OK’ and then close the command prompt.

The new values will be valid the next time you call up the command prompt and you can use it with your own settings. Here is a way to change color and customize the command prompt.

Here is how you can customize the Command Prompt..

Defragment Drives Easily from Right Click – Context Menu

0 comments
For the system to work smoothly, the hard disk must be defragmented regularly. However, using the Start menu to open the Disk Manager each time becomes cumbersome. With an entry in the registry, you can expand the context menu for disk drives to include the command to defragment them directly from the right click context menu.

Select ‘Start > Run’, enter ‘regedit’ and press [Enter].
In the Registry Editor, navigate to the key
‘HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell’.
There, create a sub-key ‘Defrag’ through ‘Edit > New > Key’. This is only the name of the entry in the context menu.

Under that create the sub-key ‘Command’ for the actual program call.

Now select the ‘Command’ key by clicking it and then double-click on the character string ‘Default’ in the right pane.
In the following dialog box, enter the ‘Value data’ with the following command ‘Defrag.exe %1’. The variable ‘%1’ gives the selected disk drive letter to the tool ‘defrag.exe’.
Close the registry.

The change is immediately effective without having to restart the computer. Now as soon as you right-click on any drive in Windows Explorer, you can defragment it through the new context menu item you just created.

Note: To create a key in the registry and to use the new context command you must be logged on to the computer with administrator rights.
