How can you run a file on startup using CMD?

Make a batch file. Open up notepad, type in the commands just like you would if you had a C:\prompt and choose "save as." When you save it, remove the .txt extension & use .bat instead. Batch files can be executed just like an .exe, any commands in the batch file are put to a command prompt & executed. So just put the batch file (or a shortcut to it) in programs/startup in your start menu & youre done!


What is a batch code?

A batch code is basically a mini program, that does something in Comman Prompt. You can write a very simple batch file, or a extensive one that can do a lot of stuff.

A batch file will let you run a lot of commands really fast instead of retyping them. People use batch files to take ownership of a lot of files, to do routine maintainence on their computer and to hack.
