Is there a way to find out what cmd commands have been entered on a pc?

Many, not all, available commands can be listed by typing help in the Command Prompt.

If you are asking for a historical list of commands that users have entered on the PC via the command prompt, you are out of luck. DOS was never trained to remember the commands typed in by users.

Doskey /History will list the commands entered but only for the Current Session.
Function keys are helpful but again only in the current session:
F1 retypes the previous command one character at a time F2 brings up a dialog and asks "Enter the char to copy up to:" F3 retypes the last command in full F4 brings up a dialog and asks "Enter char to delete up to:" F5 as for F3 F6 Print EOF character (Ctrl+Z) F7 brings up a dialog of all the recent command history with each line numbered (for use prior to F9) F8 brings up each of the most recent commands, one at a time F9 brings up a dialog and asks "Enter command number:"
