Color command not working using system() function in c

Question

System command is used to execute the dos shell commands using the c program asif they were executed directly on command prompt itself.

color command working on the dos shell when applied directly but fails when used by the system() function.

Answer 1

Since COLOR is an internal command and not a program, the system() function (normally) cannot recognize it.

However, you can try by using the CMD program, with parameter /K, in this way:

    system("CMD.EXE /K COLOR 63 ");
