Hi

Please have a look on the video. Is there a way to undo a certain DOS command? In the video I entered the command "color 3d", is there a way to undo this command and revert to the previous color scheme? Please help me. Thanks.

You should be able to issue this command to reset to white foreground against a black background - color 07

Thanks, Mark. But my question was not particularly concerned about the color command. It wanted to know if there is a way to undo any command in DOS?

If the command is still running, you can stop it with ctrl-C, but AFAIK, there is no way to undo a command.
