Must Know - Command Prompt & Batch Files

In this video, I speak with Patrick Stone about command prompt basics ("need to know" commands), batch file programming and basic scripting, and evil empires. Think of this as a basic tutorial / introduction to how to use command prompt.

Good to see the expanding content. GN keeps getting better!

I'll throw in "system file check" (sfc /scannow), like checkdisk it's good if you're having problems with Windows and it replaces any corrupted system files.

Great video! This information was super helpful! Especially the explanation of the ip renew commands, it was simple to give me a better idea of how things work and I really appreciate it.

I can't tell you how useful ipconfig/release, ipconfig/renew has been for me. I used to have problem on my old rig Running win 7. Comcast or my pc would not renew my IPV4 address. I could use google and youtube but nothing else. Instant fix for that, Ide have to do so everytime I restarted. Happened to my buddies computer last week, luckily I knew exactly what was happening. useful!!! Thanks for the tips guys!

Hey guys, awesome video. Thanks for sharing this! I was wonder if you can suggest me where to find resources on how to code this kind of batch files. And I would like to know if it is possible to have a batch file running all the time waiting for an input from a txt file. So ones this txt file is created the batch file execute a function/command base on that text content. Kind of the text file contains a variable. Hope this is clear. Thanks in advance!

I'll add that Batch will become obsolete once the new Windows 10 Update rolls out. Bash will basically rule all Operating Systems then, which is a very good thing.

I started with Windows 2.0 and DOS 3.3. I have had plenty of command prompt experience.

With one or two clicks is it possible to OC my GPU at desirable clock speed, turn up the fan speed on CPU, and on rear fan ?
I can do all that in ~15 clicks using MSI afterburner and SpeedFan, but i want some faster way (like a shortcut to all that).
