    CMD is not updated in final build of Windows 10

    It's not clear what you expect. If you right click on the Title bar and go to Properties, there are 4 tabs: Options, Font, Layout and Colors. There you can change the font size and window size. There is no "Experimental" tab. There is a checkbox on
    the lower part of the Options tab indicating to use a "legacy" version of the command prompt. There is also a link there to show new options with the Command prompt.

    Text size in the Command Prompt

    Hi counter, I am Rob, a volunteer and a 10 time and dual award MVP specializing in Windows troubleshooting and Bluescreen analysis.

    Right Click the top bar of the Command Prompt Window (i.e. Right Click the words "Command Prompt" on the top left) and select Properties.

    There you can change Font, Size, Color and other options.

    Please let us know the results and if you need further assistance.
