When i write nul.> on cmd I get:
Access is denied.
How can I make a file on the C drive? I tried to use the echo.> command but it doesn't work.
At the beginning open the command prompt "Run as administrator" and press enter for each line..
cd\
type nul > hellofile.txt
echo.>hellofile.txt
The root of the system drive has restricted access, requiring elevated permissions to write to it. The same is true of some subfolders.
To create a file on the C drive therefore, you should create it in a subfolder to which you have access.

The command F: is not changing the prompt to local drive from c to f.
Before it would happen easily but suddenly the command has stopped working .
What is the reason behind this behaviour?
You need to use the /d switch:
cd /d f:
or just type
f:
without the /d switch, the directory is changed, but not the disk, if you switch the disk you'll see that the directory has changed:
c:\srv> cd f:
F:\
c:\srv> cd f:\dropbox
c:\srv> f:
f:\Dropbox>

I'm on Windows 10, the cmd does not recognize any commands.
It return always:
"the name of the commande" is not recognized as an internal or external command, an executable program, or a batch file
after Google search, I found that I should modifiy the Path in Environment Variables to add this line bellow, but it does not resolve the problem:
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\
Someone please can tell me how can I resolve this problem?
Thank you
ls is NOT a standard Windows command! DIR is the Windows equivalent to ls.
To see a list of Windows supported command, enter help. The example output:
>help
For more information on a specific command, type HELP command-name.

When I tried to use list ls on a Windows command prompt, the system doesn't recognize it. I already added C:\Windows\System32 in the path.
Use the command dir to list all the directories and files in a directory; ls is a unix command.

I want to get a list of all the file extensions that a windows machine will recognize as an executable.
I tried the following in command prompt:
echo %PATHEXT%
But all I got from that is:
.COM;.EXE;.BAT;.VBS;.VBE;.JS;.WSF;.WSH;.MSC
Which is not a complete list. It's missing things like:
.SCR;.REG;.VB;.VBSCRIPT
and so on.
If the extension is not in %PATHEXT%, then there is no association. If you just type the.vbs at the command line, you will be informed of same.
If you type cscript the.vbs, then the script will run; assuming cscript.exe is somewhere in the PATH variable.
In short, files such as .SCR;.REG;.VB;.VBSCRIPT are not actually executable. It is the association that is used to know which executable can run them.

All my .bat files are opening automatically in notepad. Anyone know what kind of file I need to associate it? I tried to associate to "Windows command processor", but it only opened the "command-prompt", and didn't execute it.
Try removing the .bat file association in the registry. See this link for more details.
You should just be able to remove the "UserChoice" sub-folder.
