If you would like to launch a command prompt in Windows, you should first know what type of Windows you are using.

If you are using modern Windows, these are some of the things that you have to do:

• Run Window.

• To do that, press win + R.

• Type cmd and press enter.

• Click okay.

• If you are using a laptop or device that has touchscreen feature, tap on the screen.

If you are going to use Windows 10, you need to press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to open the administrator prompt. Some people can also use a shortcut key so that they can skip the whole process. They would just type in the Windows key + X. Choose C if you are not the admin and A if you are the admin.
