If XP is already installed but DOS is not, install “MS-DOS 7.10 full installation edition” to install DOS.

Send the “Command Prompt” in Accessories as a desktop shortcut
Modify the properties of “Command Prompt”
Change the target %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe
to %SystemRoot%\system32\command.com
Definitely works,

Not bad, compatibility is much stronger.
Since WINXP has the command line interpreter command.com, can its kernel be extracted to make a DOS-like system disk?

I prefer this in cmd:
C:\>command
C:\>exit
C:\>
This changes the setting that way, and the compatibility is stronger. (It supports both 16/32-bit command line programs at the same time)

Somehow somewhere I've got to choose.
No matter if it is win or lose.

Do you enter it in the Command Prompt under XP Accessories?

Just to explain, this COMMAND.COM in WinXP is a simple modified version of the COMMAND.COM from MS-DOS 5.0, so its functions are far less powerful than those of MS-DOS 7.10.

What if you replace the one under winXP with the COMMAND.COM from MS-DOS 7.10?

Question: can the “MS-DOS 7.10 full installation edition” here be installed in an
NTFS partition? My computer only has the last partition as FAT32,
and it also has linux installed. Installing the “MS-DOS 7.10 full installation edition”
won't damage the boot sector, right?
If I install it in the last FAT32 partition, what do I need to modify
so I can enter DOS?
Right now my computer boots through linux into a LINUX and DOS
selection screen!
One more thing: you can use “NTFSDOS Professional Edition” to make a boot disk
and read/write NTFS partitions
