Yup, I have an icon in my quicklaunch bar to go straight to DOS: If at first you don't succeed, drop to DOS & do it right.

But they've dropped some commands & I can't run most of my old utilities I  found or created to make DOS work just as I wanted.

I have RDK.exe for that -- Rock's Directory Killer - takes out an entire  directory & everything inside, without the silly need to delete the files from  the lowest level on up to the top first. Of course, now the CLI's DEL does that (finally)

Yup, but I like the tinkering. . .  :)
