| Vista Home Premium (SP1, x86, Ita) | config.nt or autoexec.nt problems Hello, I’m trying to use some aliases for MS-DOS shell commands in Vista... I’ve edited C:\Windows\system32\config.nt adding this line: “doskey finder=findstr /I /M /R $*”. It doesn’t work: a new command prompt still says “finder” is unknown command. Why this? Where is my error? PS Even after a logoff-logon or reboot it’s still the same. |

| Vista Home Premium (SP1, x86, Ita) | Re: config.nt or autoexec.nt problems As far as I can see Vista IGNORES C:\Windows\system32\config.nt and autoexec.nt. Anyway I've found this registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Process, REG_SZ value AutoRun can force any new opened command prompt to execute first what you specify. I've set it to autoexec.bat to run my own MS-DOS settings... Hope this helps others too. Don't know why Vista totally ingores config.nt and autoexec.nt. |
