Silly question, but I'm setting up my Start menu to look as authentic as possible. In that regard, I'd love to have something like this:
Basically, a shortcut to Windows 98's MSDOS Command Prompt (command.com) that can be launched from the Start menu, on Windows 10 64 bit.
I know, it's impossible, unless you use something like DOSBox. But I've been trying; for the life of me, I can't get it working. Just exits straight away. I just want this for looks, nothing more. So, is it possible to get it running in DOSBox? Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: OK, getting somewhere. I tried opening command.com (taken from W98) directly with "Open with" and this time DOSBox didn't crash. Instead I get: "Incorrect MSDOS version". Kinda seems like a deadend, but I'm gonna try a few things more. If anyone wants to throw in some ideas, or a solution, please let me know!
