Why Microsoft did not improve their CMD?

Hey all,.

I use Ubuntu and Windows 7 and Linux terminal is much more functional, why has Microsoft skipepd on their CMD and not upgraded to compete with Linux? Surely that would stimulate sales and use among web developers if their CMD has been up to?

so my question is why haven't they took the time to make them more functional CMD?

Look at the Powershell CLI which is now part of Windows. It supports more than the CMD prompt, including extended scripts.

  • Why Microsoft did not recognize or set the iexplore.exe virus?

    After cold boot my Toshiba Satellite laptop computer with Vista, pane the Task Manager process shows no instance of iexplore.exe. However, after using the computer for a while (using Outlook, Crome, Excel etc) my system slowly grinds almost to a halt several instances of iexplore.exe appear in the process pane, each consumer of 15 to 25% of the total of processor cycles. This becomes worse and worse until the system becomes unusable.

    I belong to several thousand users of Windows who is plagued by the iexplore.exe virus. I used 5 different virus/malware removers (including MS Security Essentials and MSERT.exe), but they do not solve this problem.
    Why Microsoft did not recognize this virus dangerous and done something to remove it? (ODILE. EXE does not help).  Only users that I found on the web that have to get rid of this nasty virus are those who reformatted their hard drives.  Microsoft can surely do better than that.
    Has anyone found a solution that actually works?  (A lot of the fixes suggested on the net "seem" to work for a few hours or a day or two, but then the virus appears again upward and consumes most or all of the cycles CPU).
    I'm surprised that Microsoft do not have a solution to the problem. If you have a solution that really works, please let me know. Thank you.

    And you think this is a virus why? I admit it could be a root kit, but I suspect that a program you use called IExplore to launch a URL, but fails to launch a browser window, that is why tasks of runaways.

  • Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to fix it?

    No Option to install repair - SAD

    Hello

    Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.

    I recently had a problem where Vista Business 64-bit would only boot to a black screen with a mobile cursor - KSOD.   Who, in searching the Web I found is a fairly common problem with Vista.  I discovered that my only option was about to reinstall Vista CLEAN and all the other programs I had installed under it.  I can't believe that Microsoft released the 'repair installation option"similar to that of Windows XP, where you can hit the"R"key during installation and we left with nothing but the"System Restore"options and"Startup Repair ".  Neither of which has helped in my situation.  Since then, this was a dual system boot with XP Pro, then any restore point has been removed from the partition to Vista anytime, I started another recognized problem, by Microsoft, which Microsoft has made no significant effort to fix, in addition to recommending that you hide the partion Vista in XP - a whole of XP.  That beats a little the entire purpose of dual boot.

    As I tried to start in safe mode, it left me at the same point as a normal boot - black screen with a cursor.  I tried ctrl + alt + delete and nothing. Two Windows RE options did not help me.  This left me no option but to the completely reinstall Vista.   Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.. Please don't tell me that it is because Vista uses an image file instead of an installation as XP system.   I see no other reason for not allowing the upgrade of outside BONE in addition to Microsofts greed and paranoia that he can transform the operating system easier to install illegally.  I hope that some third party has actually changed the Vista installation routine to allow you to install Vista on itself, because as it is, it's really hard for me to even recommend Vista as the operating system or install any where else, if not the only recourse after loading OS, is to reinstall completely.

    Adobe, Autodesk, and almost all other software publishers... allow you to perform a "REPAIR" of their software installation, if something prevents you to load after installation.  Even MS Office has a routine repair.  Ms has an internal version of the Setup routine which allows outside the OS upgrade option that you want to "Upgrade" / repair? ".  If not, why?

    -Todd w.

    "Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair."

    «.. . After using XP's repair function, the operating system itself would become less stable and frankly not in a good state of repair. »

    As Todd, is the answer.

    "This response does not hold water as on one of my computers I've been running Windows XP for about four years now, after a repair install.

    Then, you were lucky.  Try to replace the system files on a computer that does not start even at a desk or safe mode usually will get a return to office, but will probably repeat the same problem in a few weeks.  Tech professional would only use this function to retrieve the data before a complete reinstallation.

    Why Microsoft does not make a new version of windows xp and make it innovative, modern design and it may appoint windows xp super and make windows xp stay supported and wanted by the people because of its new design and functionality that you will add

    Hello Alex_88_20,

    That Microsoft remove never any code when a new operating system is created, you can actually say that Windows Vista is Windows XP with an upgrade. Basically, the same applies with all versions of Windows, the latest version is simply grafted on the other. There are millions of lines of code in Windows, Microsoft could never start from scratch to create a new version of Windows. If they did the chances are that it wouldn't work as well as the current version!

    I went in lightroom and can't find my photos. I lost the link before and did the right click to find and they have been found, but it's different.

    I bought an external hard drive and copied some elements but did not cut their.  I did a back up on my external hard drive, but even once did not move them. I did the simple troubleshooting and it doesn't work.  I'm trying to find the original by right clicking the? on the folder LR and once I find the file it tells me that Lightroom has this file already in the catalog - and I want to merge. I tried one and it disappeared or moved. Help!

    Use the file Explorer to see if the images are still in their original location. I suspect that move instead of copy them. This can happen if you drag you the.

    I found that it is best to use either right click on a file or folder name and select copy then right click on the drive-destination folder and select Paste or use keyboard shortcuts to copy and paste folder and files from one disk to another. The keyboard shortcuts are the CTRL + key C to copy and Ctrl + V to paste in the selected destination folder-drive.

  • Help! Why 'Save' did not work in Word 2008? (Sudden compatibility problem?)

    This may be a matter of Microsoft, but I couldn't find an answer on Microsoft, and I see that sometimes Word questions get addressed here - I'm really desperate, so thanks for any help out there!  For my actual questions, scroll down.

    SITUATION:

    Yesterday I plugged my Macbook (13 "early 2006) to a"certified refurbished"card I bought it in case I ever needed replacement.  This morning, my speakers Logitech from emitting a buzzing, but it disappeared when I disconnected the.  Then after that I had worked for about 20 minutes, Word for Mac 2008 started to work very slowly.  Fortunately (I thought), I have always set Word to register automatically once per minute and had saved the document several times manually anyway.

    Don't know what was going on, I saved the doc once and tried to quit Word normally, but everything was so slow that I knew I was in trouble.  I couldn't get to "Force quit" in the Finder or get the slider to make a restart (the cursor moved but Finder did not), so finally I forced a stoppage.

    When the computer has restarted, I was hoping that at least if the document had not been recorded when I pressed on congratulate + S, I could get it back to automatic recovery.  However, when I open the document again, not only had not he been saved, but nothing of all the work I had done since starting to work 20 minutes earlier had been saved or (although I definitely checked him at least 4 times, including just before trying to quit smoking).  In addition, the 2008 Auto Recovery folder is now empty.  Other Office programs that I use seem to work normally.

    I have copies of what I started with (I save to Dropbox on a stick every time I stopped to work and every night with SuperDuper/passport), so it was not a disaster, except that I really want to recover the work I've done.  I went into the preferences of Word and saw that "Autosave" was always "every minute" but "Always make a backup copy of" has been disabled, so I checked it - but of course will not recover my lost files.  I then went to the typed Word document something again, click Save (File menu this time), you leave the file and reopened; the change I had made had been recorded. If that really works, but I fear even saved manual can stop working!

    QUESTIONS:

    1. is it possible to locate and recover at least one of the previous versions I saved?  (Hopefully there is a simple explanation; "I'm a kind of a technodunce!)

    2. where did you all documents Word 2008 AutoRecovery go who were supposed to be in the folder Microsoft Data?

    3. can you Word 2008 suddenly became incompatible with OS 10.6.8? Or could the new adapter did BONES 10.6.8 (Word, Finder, etc.) crash AND destroyed existing AutoRecover documents?  (I had not looked into the record of automatic recovery for a while, but I'm sure there are a few in there!)

    4. where are all these "Works Word files" I always saw? Don't know what they were for, but I can't now.

    5. Why does Word not only disappear all the existing documents of ASR, but also stop save the custom keyboard + S?

    Thank you very much for any suggestions on these questions (1 and 2, in particular!).

    If the problems started after you connected to the adapter, try this disconnection and test.

    HOW CAN I FIX THE CODE OF ERROR FOR WINDOWS UPDATE 80070490. MY REGISTRY CLEANER WHICH COST ME 80 BUCKS DID NOT HELP.

    Hi WINCHESTERJAKE,

    I suggest you perform the SFC scan on the computer and check.

    Use the System File Checker tool (SFC.exe) to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

    2. type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow

  • Why microsoft does not provide the product key for windows 8.1

    I have genuine windows 8 so if Microsoft gives the free update to windows 8.1 store so why he does not provide the product key for windows 8.1 so that we can update to it through disk offline

    If you want to install Windows 8.1 clean, but have only a product key Windows 8, you must install Windows 8.1 with a placeholder key - keys of the placeholder will be not - activate and change your product key for Windows 8 key.

    The placeholder keys are:

  • I don't know why Microsoft does not offer a laptop stolen, followed by assistance to all its users under license?

    A creator of this popular software, this should be the most logical part. Given that each authorized user registers with it as well as the id MAC, regularly logs in to windows update, if the same is machine is stolen, even where it is formatted, as and when the new user comes in contact with microsoft for windows update, it should be able to catch the really fast user's ip and report it to the original user.

    Microsoft listening?

    Not all users * records * Windows - in fact, I would say that VERY FEW users register their software.

    More * activate * the software - but since there is no personal information associated with the activation - this does little or nothing to prove ownership (wouldn't attach the product to one person in particular).

    I think you are oversimplifying the ability to do what you're talking about.  You buy the right to use the Microsoft operating system - you do not have.  You actually already saved your Microsoft operating system , or simply activated?

  • Why Microsoft did stop Windows 7 when Windows 8 is out?

    Windows 7 has been/is the best operating system, Microsoft has released to date. Lets admit, Windows 8 is designed for tablets and touchscreens. So why has Microsoft stopped selling Windows 7 when it is perfect for desktop computers? I build desktop and I refuse to install Windows 8 because it was so badly designed. I think "stockpilling" Windows 7.
