ipconfig /all

[bob]

If I type ipconfig /all, in run, it flashes on the screen for a second and
then disappears. Is there a fix for this ?
Thanks

Open the command prompt window first. Start, Run and enter CMD. Click OK

Start | Run | Cmd | Ok. Then do ipconfig /all from the cmd window.

For any command-mode programs, use the "cmd /k" prefix. For
instance, instead of
ipconfig /all
you would type
cmd /k ipconfig /all

The "cmd /k" executes the given command but keeps the command window
open afterward. You can then close it by typing
exit
or using the red X at the upper right.

He doesn't need to do that, Stan. Read the previous replies. He just
needs to start cmd from Start>Run instead of typing "ipconfig"
directly.

Depends on what he wants to do. My method costs two extra
characters, but works great in a shortcut, rather than typing the
ipconfig /all command into the command window after opening it.
