How to enable AutoComplete for Command Prompt (cmd.exe) ?

Enable AutoComplete for the Command Prompt

Command line completion (also tab completion) is a common feature of command line interpreters, in which the program automatically fills in partially typed commands.

Automatic complete for CMD.exe is not enabled by default in Windows 2000 and later.

To enable automatic complete for Cmd.exe, use Registry Editor (Regedt32.exe) to view the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Command Processor

Edit the CompletionChar value, and set the value of REG_DWORD to 9.

Note : You don't need to restart your computer.
