Anxiously awaiting the day Bill Gates becomes "terminal" too.
@hanness Have you tried some of the usual SHELL calls with QB64 to see how they run? I mean they should work just fine, but if anyone was relying on the output like SHELL dir, they might be in for some work re-tooling their parsing functions. That was true when Windows switched from command /c to cmd /c from Win 98 to Win XP. Anyway it looks like Windows created a better command prompt "experience" but it still makes me laugh how much of this reverts back to that guy who developed DOS. First they built Windows under it and then over it, and now they are digging it up and revitalizing it. DOS is boss.
