Commands not working in Windows 7 32-bit command prompt
- by Precious Tijesunimi
I have an HP laptop with a Windows 7 32-bit Home Premium operating system. My command prompt doesn't run lots of commands like help, shutdown, ipconfig, ping, etc. I get a message like:
'help' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
Only simple commands like cd and dir are working. I noticed that whenever I navigate to c:/windows/system32, the command works. But I need to run some important commands like java on a file that is on the desktop and not in the system32 folder.
How can I fix this?
