    MS-DOS is a character-based, single-user operating system. It can be started by typing "cmd" into the Start menu or using Win+R. The font size of DOS can be increased by changing the font and size in Properties. MS-DOS uses disks to store data magnetically including floppy disks and hard disks. It utilizes files with a name, separator, and extension stored in directories that have a path address. Common commands are used to view system information, manage files and directories, and change properties. Color codes can alter the background and foreground colors in DOS. The Tree command provides a drilldown view of folders and subdirectories.
