Jeri's instructions did it for me, just as I had been
trying to do.   Thanx to everyone.

If all else fails, the path in w7 is normally
"C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe"
It's handy, as jeri suggests, to send a shortcut to the desktop.

They're all right - redundancy is a major feature often overlooked in these operating systems.

Whoops should have added this…….

In the window that appears when you select the Run Command, type: cmd hit enter an then you'll get your little command menu interface.

Cheers,

If the 'button at the bottom of the bax is missing, this might help.

Right click start Menu
Choose Properties
Click Start Menu Tab
Choose Customise
Scroll down list to Run Command button and select if unselected.
Click Apply/OK
Run Command should now appear in the menu window when you click on the Start Menu Button

Cheers,

Oh, gee....Windows 7. I think you can push the "Start" button, click on the box at the bottom of the list, and just type "command." Can't tell for sure until I get to work. I don't have any Windows 7 computers here.
All I remember is that it's really, really easy...

Go to your Start menu
Click "All Programs"
Click "Accessories"
Right click on "Command Prompt" and select "Copy"
Mouse over your desktop, right click and select "create shortcut"

I had (for malware/virus reasons) to have my Windows 7 reinstalled in my Dell Inspiron 560. In the process I lost my Command Interface icon, which has been an essential tool for me in how I use the computer ever since I first had previous versions of Windows.

In the process of reestablishing the Windows 7 OS, I lost the little
Command Interface window icon, and I've forgotten how one finds that file.

Can someone point me to it? Please? I really need to be able to
get to the DOS-like interface, so that I can create a Shortcut to the
Command Interface.
