国内几乎没什么用DOS的了。哎。现在就连很多高中生都不知道DOS是个什么东西！（除了我这个高中生以外。）
高中生的故事。
我们网管把教室里面 Windows 7 的“白板”电脑升级到 10，结果一致差评（他忘记装配套软件了）。无奈中的无奈，打算降回去。升级时我凑了热闹，降级我也去凑热闹。
预先调查过，D盘有电脑的出厂镜像，用 GHOST 备份的。然后我凑个热闹，附带有 DOS 版的 GHOST 和一个启动它的批处理。我们因此才敢不备份就把 Windows 升级的，但是现在见了这个镜像，却在发愁。
我们俩都不会用 GHOST。他有一个 WinPE 的启动盘，进PE了。PE 有个 Windows 版的 GHOST，但是我们都不会用，盯着英文发愁。罢罢罢，调用厂商写好的批处理才是眼下最简单的方法，不用愁参数或者误删除数据。
“你U盘有 DOS 吗？”
“当然有啊！”
于是乎，启动了《命令提示符》。
二话不说，“您的计算机不能运行该软件，请咨询您的厂家。”
“喂，我说的不是这个 DOS啊！？”
“......那个 DOS 我U盘上无......”
并不算是，至少 DiskGenious 有个DOS版，可以从 WinPE 中启动。
重启过后。
“我盯着呢，在E盘。”（注：）
“别着急......”
A:\>C:
C:\>DIR
No File Found.
C:\>D:
D:\>DIR
RESTORE.BAT xxxx-xx-xx xxxx
....
D:\>RESTORE.BAT
我不记得还原分区在哪个 DOS 盘符上。不过电脑上其他分区都是 NTFS格式化的。只有U盘和还原分区能被DOS使用。
然后，熟悉的GHOST界面出现。毕竟还是见多了。
我着急回家吃饭，先回去了。
下午到学校，网管一脸不高兴。
厂商的还原镜像（的确就是......），塞有主页劫持软件，还有一堆过期的许可证。这些是小事。他对 Windows 比我熟的多。
然而他最不能接受的是：
“当年装 Windows 10的时候，十分钟的事，这个恢复花了我整整半个小时。”
然而若是提前查好资料，我这个馊主意就不会被用，现在 Windows 的硬盘优化比 DOS/BIOS 好多了。
当年用 DOS 是为了破解微机室的还原精灵（BIOS未加锁，可换启动顺序，绕过Windows是个办法，用 DOS 比其它启动盘快多了），然而从来没有实行。
然而现在 UEFI 当道，Win7都难以启动，重度依赖BIOS的DOS或许未来只能在模拟器里面吹牛用了。教室里面的BIOS或许是个定制版，因为后来才发现白版（安卓平板+Win电脑，安卓部分）上有一个一键恢复钮。

There are almost no people using DOS in China. Hey. Now even many high school students don't know what DOS is! (Except me, this high school student.)
Stories of high school students.
Our network administrator upgraded the "whiteboard" computer with Windows 7 in the classroom to Windows 10, and the result was unanimously bad reviews (he forgot to install the supporting software). In desperation, he planned to downgrade. I joined in the fun during the upgrade, and I also joined in the fun during the downgrade.
I had investigated in advance that there was a factory image of the computer on drive D, backed up with GHOST. Then I joined in the fun, and there was a DOS version of GHOST and a batch file to start it. That's why we dared to upgrade Windows without backing up, but now seeing this image, we are worried.
Neither of us knows how to use GHOST. He has a WinPE boot disk, and we entered PE. PE has a Windows version of GHOST, but neither of us knows how to use it, and we are worrying about the English. Forget it, calling the batch file written by the manufacturer is the simplest way at the moment, without worrying about parameters or accidentally deleting data.
"Do you have DOS on your USB drive?"
"Of course!"
So, the "Command Prompt" was started.
Without saying a word, "Your computer cannot run this software, please consult your manufacturer."
"Hey, I'm not talking about this DOS!?"
"......I don't have that DOS on my USB drive......"
It's not really, at least there is a DOS version of DiskGenious, which can be started from WinPE.
After restarting.
"I'm keeping an eye on it, it's on drive E." (Note:)
"Don't worry......"
A:\>C:
C:\>DIR
No File Found.
C:\>D:
D:\>DIR
RESTORE.BAT xxxx-xx-xx xxxx
....
D:\>RESTORE.BAT
I don't remember which DOS drive the restore partition is on. However, other partitions on the computer are formatted with NTFS. Only the USB drive and the restore partition can be used by DOS.
Then, the familiar GHOST interface appeared. After all, I have seen it many times.
I was in a hurry to go home for dinner, so I went back first.
In the afternoon, I went to school, and the network administrator looked unhappy.
The manufacturer's restore image (it really is......) has home page hijacking software and a bunch of expired licenses. These are minor issues. He is much more familiar with Windows than I am.
However, what he can't accept the most is:
"When I installed Windows 10 back then, it took ten minutes, but this recovery took me half an hour."
However, if I had checked the information in advance, this bad idea wouldn't have been used. Now Windows' hard disk optimization is much better than DOS/BIOS.
Back then, I used DOS to crack the restore elf in the computer room (the BIOS was not locked, the boot order could be changed, bypassing Windows was a way, using DOS was much faster than other boot disks), but it was never implemented.
However, now that UEFI is prevalent, Windows 7 is difficult to boot, and DOS that heavily relies on BIOS may only be used to brag in emulators in the future. The BIOS in the classroom may be a customized version, because later I found out that there is a one-click recovery button on the white version (Android tablet + Win computer, Android part).
