Input Command

[Nezmin2]

Hello Guy's and Gal's,
I have installed the miracle C compiler on my laptop for my Programming concepts class and I am having trouble. I am running Vista Ult 64x and the instructions I recieved are as follows:

Running Miracle C under Vista​

At the command prompt, enter:​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

input takeown /f filepath <enter>​

A message will be display that this completed successfully.

Enter this:​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

icacls filepath /grant loginname:f <enter>
​

A message will be display that this completed successfully.
Next, go to the windows directory, right mouse click on the _default file, select properties, select the Program tab, and remove the checkmark for “Close on Exit.”
​

Example:
input takeown /f c:\windows\_default​

icacls c:\windows\_default /grant torme:f

However, when I attempt the first step I receive a "input is not recognized as an internal or external command.

Can you tell me what I am doing wrong or if there is another way?

Hi Nezmin2 and welcome to Vista Forums

There is NO command 'input' in the command interpreter. Instead, taking your example, this should read:

[FONT=Arial][COLOR=#0000ff] [/COLOR][/FONT]
[LEFT]Example:
takeown /f c:\windows\_default[/LEFT]
icacls c:\windows\_default /grant torme:f

Re: Input Command - Resolved

There is NO command 'input' in the command interpreter. Instead, taking your example, this should read:

[LEFT]Example:
takeown /f c:\windows\_default[/LEFT]
icacls c:\windows\_default /grant torme:f

I guess if I had really looked over this code, and drank just one more cup of coffee, I would have realized that "input" was instructional and not part of the code.

Thank's Dwarf...(for pointing this out)
