Eu pesquisei por "command prompt" menu site:microsoft.com
, o primeiro resultado apontou para o link . Aqui está um trecho:
- Properties. Changes you make here affect the current session. When you leave the properties dialog box,
you'll be given the option of propagatingyour changes [will propagate] to the shortcut from which this session was launched. If you accept, all future sessions launched from that shortcut will also use the new settings.- Defaults. Changes will not affect the current session but instead will affect all future sessions (except for those launched from a shortcut whose properties have been customized). These changes also affect future sessions in character-mode, MS-DOS-based applications that do not have a program-information file (PIF) and do not store their own settings.
Note that when you use the second method, choosing Defaults, you also get the option to enable and disable the AutoComplete option, which is enabled by default.
Na minha experiência, o Prompt de Comando do Windows 7 salva as alterações feitas na sessão atual (por exemplo, cor de plano de fundo) sem perguntar ao usuário.
