I typed ECHO Y FORMAT A: at the prompt and now every time I type format A: it displays
ECHO Y FORMAT A and then Y FORMAT A. What did I do and how do I undo it?
You missed a key in that string. After the "Y" and before the "FORMAT" should be the pipe "|" which you get from holeing the shift key while hitting the backslash "\" button. Strange problems you have, try using the whole format command...
FORMAT.EXE A:
echo what! you're turned on the echo feature of DOS.
while that response may or may not work, try typing in the c: prompt this...
echo off
this will turn off the echo feature.
