How to Enable Command Line Autocompletion in Windows NT and Wind[idea] ID: Q247435 CREATED: 01-DEC-1999 MODIFIED: 02-DEC-1999 WINDOWS:2000; winnt:4.0,4.0a,4.5 WINDOWS winnt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server versions 4.0, 4.0a, 4.5 - Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server - Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional - Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server - Microsoft Windows 2000 Server - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0 - Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= IMPORTANT: This article contains information about editing the registry. Before you edit the registry, make sure you understand how to restore it if a problem occurs. For information about how to do this, view the "Restoring the Registry" Help topic in Regedit.exe or the "Restoring a Registry Key" Help topic in Regedt32.exe. The Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 command prompts allow for command line completion extensions by pressing the key. This saves a number of keystrokes when trying to type long paths or filenames. For instance, typing the line: cd c:\pro and then hitting the key will expand the line to: cd "c:\Program Files" If there are multiple possibilities, ie. Using this example, If there was a Program Files directory and a Professional directory, hitting the TAB key multiple times would allow a person to switch between them. This behavior is disabled by default. MORE INFORMATION ================ WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating system. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry Editor can be solved. Use Registry Editor at your own risk. For information about how to edit the registry, view the "Changing Keys and Values" Help topic in Registry Editor (Regedit.exe) or the "Add and Delete Information in the Registry" and "Edit Registry Data" Help topics in Regedt32.exe. Note that you should back up the registry before you edit it. If you are running Windows NT, you should also update your Emergency Repair Disk (ERD). To enable this feature, do the following: To change the setting for the TypeGuessRows value, follow these steps: 1. Close any programs that are running. 2. On the Start menu, click Run. Type "regedt32" (without the quotation marks) and click OK. 3. In the Registry Editor, expand the following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor 4. Select CompletionChar and on the Edit menu click Modify. 5. Change the value to 9. The command prompt will now allow command line completion. No reboot is necessary. To restore the default settings, change the value to the default setting of "0" (without the quotes). Additional query words: complete bash csh korn shell Unix-like | |||||
