Product: HP Stream 11
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello. I recently became the proud owner of an HP Stream 11 running Windows 10 HOME, version 1803. 

I can’t find the command prompt or similar command line application. I’ve tried:

 

-search cmd

-Windows menu > Windows system

-right click Windows menu

-various other unsuccessful methods

 

Is command prompt or similar not available on this machine for some reason?

@Stream11cmd 

 

Check the following.

 

Open Settings and then open Personalisation.

 

Select Taskbar in the left hand pane.

 

Turn off the option to replace the Command Prompt with Powershell ( 6th option in the list ).

 

Regards,

 

DP-K
