(ii) CMD: Command

In terms of computer and technology, the abbreviation CMD is often used to refer to Command, commonly called Command Prompt or Command-Line. It is typically a user interface (UI) within the computer system that serves as a medium between computer hardware and users. Using the CMD, users may input a set of specific commands to perform respective functions on the computer system. It is mainly used to troubleshoot or solve certain kinds of issues on Windows operating system.

Every time we perform any operation on a Windows computer using the GUI (Graphical User Interface), the command line itself runs to process that particular task in the background. Since working with CMD to perform tasks is not easy for beginners, GUI is used.
