  • Sir,
    I want to know how one can open command prompt on welcome screen before login???
    Can u help me??

  • You can get Windows to open up Command Prompt temporarily before logon on next reboot.

    Open up REGEDIT, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup
    Change CmdLine to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CMD.EXE
    and change SetupType to 2 (0x00000002)

    Now reboot ..... the Command Prompt will appear instead of the logon screen.
    Once you exit the Command Prompt, the logon screen will appear.

    To do this again, you'll have to run REGEDIT again.
