DOS Directories and Files

Scroll through the Directory Listing

When we type the DIR command and press enter, the files begin to scroll vertically on our screen. If we have a lot of files it is difficult to read each one. By holding down the Control Key (CTRL) and the letter S at the same time, we are able to freeze the listing to view our files. When we are finished, press the spacebar for the list to continue.

NOTE:

We must return to the C:\> before entering our next command.
