What is the CMD ? How to use it?

What is the cmd?

Command prompt or CMD as we will use it here. It is a scripting console. It is possible to access all computer-related information through this console. There are two different methods to access the CMD code console. The first of these is to type CMD in Windows search. The other is to write CMD on the screen that opens after pressing the Windows and R keys on the keyboard at the same time.

The most used cmd commands:
