Command Prompt Default Text Color

Hi,

Code:

REG ADD "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor" /v "DefaultColor" /t REG_DWORD /d "10" /f

I use this tweak to use command prompt text color as "light green".

It works with;
1. When i open command prompt from WIN+R; cmd
2. Command prompt from WinX menu (normal start and administrator start).

But when i use a batch file (.bat) I get white text color.
I want to see light green text color when bat and cmd files are working too.
Sure I can add a "color" command at the begining of the batch file but I want to do it from registry if it is possible.

Thanks.

Hello @Feuer,

You need to add the color within the Batch Script. Put this in a Batch Script and run it . . .

Code:

@echo off
color A
echo. & echo  Hello World!
echo. & pause

A = Light Green

Also, have a look at this => NT's COLOR Command

I hope this helps.

@Paul Black
Thanks for your reply

I use "color" commad in some of my batch files but i have hundreds of BAT files, it could be hard to edit them all for this.
I want to set a default color for CMD and BAT consoles via registry.

Beside it, i found the registry address to do it in BAT files too.

HTML Code:

REG ADD "HKCU\Console" /v "ScreenColors" /t REG_DWORD /d "10" /f

I hope this helps others who are interested.
