Windows 10: Windows can't find my Power Shell (administrator) command.

Something seems to be wrong with my system files. Don't get the double arrows when I try to adjust my Taskbar's height. Can't access Power Shell (administrator) to run Dism. So, used Dism>Restore Health using Command Prompt then ran sfc ?scannow. Didn't find any corrupt files. I tried accessing my Power Shell (administrator) but my system can't find that file. Then tried Command Prompt and used Dism>Restore Health then SFC /scannow. Still can't find Power Shell (administrator). Also, still don't get the double arrows when I attempt to adjust the height of the Taskbar.

Windows Power Shell

Just discovered Windows Power Shell and am having trouble recalling DOS commands. Can I find a list of available commands? How do I make >cd work for multi word directories?

 

Power shell to Command prompt in windows creators update

Yes Microsoft in their wisdom are phasing out Command Prompt in favour of Powershell . . .

Here are the steps to add that option back to the Context Menu in Windows File Explorer:

• Make sure you can see files extensions - In File Explorer, on the View Tab, check the box 'File Name Extensions'
• Close File Explorer if it is open
• Right click a black space on your Desktop, choose New - Text Document
• Copy the text below into it
• Save the file and give it a meaningful name
• Change the file extension from .txt to .reg
• Right click the file and choose 'Merge'
• Confirm the merge when asked
• That's it, you're done, 'Open Command Prompt Here' will be back on your Shift + Right click menu in File Explorer!

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmdprompt]

@="@shell32.dll,-8506"

"Extended"=""

"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmdprompt\command]

@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmdprompt]

@="@shell32.dll,-8506"

"Extended"=""

"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmdprompt\command]

@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmdprompt]

@="@shell32.dll,-8506"

"Extended"=""

"NoWorkingDirectory"=""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmdprompt\command]

@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""

EXTRA NOTE: To add Command Prompt back to the right click of your Start Menu
(this only adds Command Prompt back to your Start menu), right click your Taskbar, choose Taskbar Settings and turn this option on . . .

 

Windows 10 Power shell executes in command prompt

I have been using power shell as an alternative to command prompt for quite a long time.

I mostly use it for Android debugging tool "adb".

I am recently facing problem where any command I write in Power Shell opens a cmd window, executes the command in cmd and closes the cmd.

I am unable to find any solution for it.

Also, I have not modified any setting for Power Shell.

Please provide a solution to the problem.
