I open cmd.exe and I wanted to see my IP address. So I typed in ipconfig but then all the output does not fit in the CMD window, so I can't scroll up and actually see the important stuff.
So how do I... "enable"... scrolling? I'm using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.
Answer
I'm on Windows XP so this may be useless, but here in XP land (and for a few Windows versions before that) you can get to the properties you're looking for either by right-clicking the icon/shortcut you use to open the command prompt, or by left-clicking the icon in the top left corner of the command window. In Properties, go to the Layout tab and increase Screen buffer size: Height to some big number like 1000. If you do it that last way, when you click OK to exit the Properties dialog, it will ask if you want to make the settings the new default. Some variation on all that likely exists in Windows 7.
