Open fullscreen command prompt in Windows 10

Open fullscreen command prompt in Windows 10 -

In previous versions of Windows, you had the opportunity to switch to full screen mode to the command prompt. Windows XP was the last version where it worked. In Windows Vista, Microsoft dropped leaving us fullscreen mode with a small black window. Recently, I covered that in Windows 10, the command prompt has been significantly improved by adding many new features. Now with the 9879 build of Windows 10, Microsoft restored the ability to go fullscreen for the command prompt. Let's see how

To try the full screen of the command prompt in Windows 10, follow these steps :.

1. Open a new command prompt window by launching the appropriate shortcut on the Start menu or by typing cmd in the menu search box and press Enter.
   
2. When the command prompt starts, press Alt + Enter keys simultaneously on the keyboard

Here, you'll see that you get the invite fullscreen order! Press Alt + Enter again to return to windowed mode.

You can also try this trick with an elevated command prompt. Open a new elevated instance of cmd.exe and press Alt + Enter again.

There. I find it cool that Microsoft revives some old useful features in Windows 10.
