List of Run Commands for Windows



Run command ability is to do almost everything that the command line can do. In some run commands the output is displayed and the windows exit.

eg: 'ipconfig' command. If you type that into Run, it would open a command prompt, run the ipconfig command, and then close because the command finished running!

So, to fix this, type cmd into the Run dialog, and then type ipconfig into the command prompt.
