Automatic File & Directory Name Completion

From the command prompt, you can list files or directories without needing to type in the entire name.
  1. Start a new command session with Start / Run / "cmd /f :on"
  2. You can scroll through files by pressing the Ctrl-F key
  3. You can scroll through directories by pressing the Ctrl-D key
  4. You can enter the first few letters of the name to make the search more specific
  5. You can search backwards by pressing shift key down at the same time
  6. To make this permanent, you can add it to any command prompt shortcuts you use
