In fact, you use
the Applications tab to re-create a command prompt should you end the CMD.EXE application (the
command prompt) accidentally. Simply use the techniques described in the Creating a New Task
session to start a new copy of CMD.EXE as needed to work through system problems.
Creating a New Task
The Task Manager lets you create new tasks as needed, including CMD.EXE, the most important
application for Server Core (see the ???Starting the Command Interpreter??? section of Chapter 5 for
details on working with CMD.EXE). Use these steps when you want to start a new application.
1. Click New Task. You??™ll see the Create New Task dialog box.
2. Type the name of the application you want to start in the Open field. Make sure you include
path information for the application as needed. The Browse button is inoperative in Server
Core, so you must know the name and location of the application you want to start. Fortunately,
any application that already exists in the Windows path, such as CMD.EXE, requires
that you only type the application name.
3. Click OK. Task Manager starts the application for you.
Ending a Task
Sometimes you may have to end a task manually.
