Resizing the DOS window & fonts
Ever since I installed PC Anywhere 10.5 on my WinXP
laptop, my default DOS window has become a tiny 2"x1" window, with font size 3. I can change the settings for an individual window, but I don't know how to change back the default settings to the original ones. |

Resizing the DOS window & fonts
Try this:
Click in the left top corner of the window, choose Properties/Font, pick the font you want and then press OK. It will ask you if you want to modify shortcut that started this window, do so and it should work next time... Repeat the same thing for Properties/Layout. /Mikhail "Scott Freeman" wrote in message ...

Resizing the DOS window & fonts
Thank you for your suggestion. However, this does not
address the issue. I know how to change the settings for a particular shortcut, but not HOW TO RESTORE THE DEFAULT SETTINGS for DOS windows. When I type "cmd" the miniature window still appears.

Ok, try this: startruntype 'cmd' and enter. Click on top left corner and pull
down the menu. Click properties and make your preferred settings. Click ok and you'll get a prompt with two choices, choose the second option to save future properties with this window. That should affect the default settings for DOS windows. -- Durand "MM" wrote in message ... Hmmm... Unfortunately, that's all I know.
