Re: [JAWS-Users] Power Shell vs Command Prompt

PowerShell is newer and much more capable. It is definitely accessible with JAWS. I've set it as the default. Command Prompt is much older (similar to the old DOS shell). It isn't a serious system administration tool as PowerShell is. Audiobookfan wrote: > What's the
