Some Commands don't work

[Mark S.]

Why don't the following commands work? I have XP Home:


C:\Documents and Settings\Mark>change /?
'change' is not recognized as an internal or external
command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\Mark>cipher /?
'cipher' is not recognized as an internal or external
command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\Mark>cprofile /?
'cprofile' is not recognized as an internal or external
command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\Mark>driverquery /?
'driverquery' is not recognized as an internal or
external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\Mark>eventcreate /?
'eventcreate' is not recognized as an internal or
external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\Documents and Settings\Mark>taskkill /?
'taskkill' is not recognized as an internal or external
command,
operable program or batch file

This is only a sample of unsupported commands.

But "Taskkill" would be the most important, and it has
the same problem as the above commands.

I think I got cheated.

You'll note they're XP *PRO* commands, not XP Home.
