How do I turn on tab auto-completion on the command prompt in windows?
Close down any open command prompt windows. You can do this by typing “exit” and pressing enter, or clicking the [X] at the top right of the window. Click on the following link and choose “Open” or “Run” to turn on tab auto-completion in your roaming profile’s registry: http://studenthelp.itee.uq.edu.au/faq/cmd_autocomplete.reg Now you can use the tab key in the command prompt to auto-complete files and directories. Just start typing the name of the directory (ie: “C:\Docu”) and press tab.
