question about cmd.exe

ok sobasicly my question is can i use the cmd from windows 7/vista on my windows xp? like run it from a seprate folder or something?

I am always writting batch scripts and id like to be able to test them on both windows 7 and windows xp but sadly my windows 7 trial ended last year so i have no way of testing them.

so im wondering is it possible to use the cmd.exe from windows 7 on my copy of windows xp(preferably without replacing my existing windows xp version of cmd.exe

 

Have you tried copying it to a separate folder, not a sub-folder of Windows,
and executing from the RUN command in XP?

As I recall, with older versions of MS-DOS, command.com from a different version wouldn't work.

At least that's how I remember it - certainly could be wrong.

 

no i havnt tried anything yet because i wanted to know if it was even possible before i go messing around with such settings i just got my computer back up to par after my wireless card almost died

 

Simple answer. No. It won't work.

 

thats what i wanted to know
