One of the many tools that administrators use on a daily basis is the Windows Command Line (cmd) / Prompt. Over this course, you’ll learn the following skills, which are often used in the real world by computer technicians:

* How to create, rename, move and delete files and directories within the Windows operating system using the command line.

* The different types of file systems and how to navigate between directories using the cmd prompt.

* Setting the date and time on your PC using the date, time and tzutil commands

* Managing and formatting disk drives using the Diskpart command

* Shutting down, restarting and logging off your machine

* Viewing and applying group policy information using the Gpupdate and Gpresult commands, which can often be useful when troubleshooting conflicting group policies.

* Creating cmd batch files and some of the most common commands used within them, which can often save time when dealing with repetitive tasks.

* How to access system information contained within the Windows Management Instrumentation database (WMI) information using the WMIC command and sub-commands.

Whilst there are some differences between versions of Windows, a lot of these commands haven’t changed since Windows 2000, meaning that any prior knowledge of this subject, while not essential by any means, would be advantageous at any stage of your IT career.
