Need FULL Screen To Run Working DOS Apps in Windows 10

  • 0

How can I run a DOS executable application program.exe in full screen in Windows 10 ?
I want to keep using a handy database which is running perfectly in any previous Windows.
Yesterday I upgraded 8.1 to Windows10 (not yet familiarwith)

That Dos program appears to run, for I tested it, but I don’t know how make it run in a full screen.
I do not remember how I managed to launch that program with 8.1 in full screen.
I’m sure there is a way to do that.
Thank you.

      I’m still on Win 7, so the only suggestion is to make sure you have all of the latest updates.

      On Win 7, the ALT+Enter hotkey never worked for full screen,
      although, there is a hack that you could try.

      After you get the Command Prompt Window,
      at the C:> prompt type: wmic
      Press Enter

      Now use the Maximize button in the upper right corner
      In Win 7 you get a full screen.
