windows to DOS
The DOS computer is currently using the following files:
- System files (.com, .exe)
- User applications (.doc, .pdf, .txt)
- Operating system components (.dll, .res)
It depends on the specific task or program running at that moment.
It likely comes down to the specific file format the DOS application is designed to handle. CAD existed on DOS before, so that alone shouldn’t cause the problem.
The computer requires specific files to run the tasks as intended.
I believe you noticed him typing "dir" and mistook it for a file extension. In DOS, DIR displays a directory listing, so to view files in a folder like "files" on your C drive you'd use commands such as C: > Enter, then navigate with CD files > Enter, followed by the list of items. It's hard to believe how much I miss DOS.
