How do you make Powershell work like CMD ?

@nuhkka

You can always get the Command Prompt back, just go to Settings>Personalization>Taskbar then go down to where it says Replace Command Prompt with Windows PowerShell in the menu etc.etc. and turn that feature OFF.

Now you can right click on the Start button and you will have the Command Prompt & Command Prompt (Admin) back.

 

You can always type cmd at the powershell prompt.
When I install the OS, I add this to the registry:

Code:

 REM ===== Replace PowerShell with Command Prompt on Windows+X ===========================================================================================================
     Reg Add "HKEY_USERS\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /v "DontUsePowerShellOnWinx" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f

 

You can go into the folder you want, then click on address bar and type cmd and hit enter, it will open a cmd on the directory you are in.

You can also change right click menu and replace it's powershell with CMD, search for it in net you'll find it, in case you didn't, I'll write it here(little complicated and I'm lazy to do it right now )

 

I just add this to registry:
============SAVE FOLLOWING TEXT AS CMD.REG AND RUN================

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmdAltr]
@="Command Prompt"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmdAltr\command]
@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""

 

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Add Open Command Prompt as Administrator and Open Powershell as Administrator to Right Click Menu.
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\background\Shell\CMDPowershell]
"MUIVerb"="Command Prompt / Powershell"
"SubCommands"="runas;Windows.MultiVerb.PowershellAsAdmin"
"icon"="C:\\Windows\\system32\\cmd.exe"
"Position"=-

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\runas]
@="Open Command Window as administrator"
"icon"="C:\\Windows\\system32\\cmd.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CommandStore\shell\runas\command]
