What is the universal command help syntax in Windows?
Comment

In Windows, the universal command to access help information for various commands is /?
. This syntax works for many built-in commands and utilities, allowing you to quickly get information on their usage and options. Simply append /?
to the end of a command to see its help documentation.
For example:
command_name /?
Replace command_name
with the actual command you want to get help for.
Here are a few examples:
To get help for the
dir
command:bashdir /?
To get help for the
copy
command:gocopy /?
To get help for the
ipconfig
command:ipconfig /?
To get help for the
ping
command:ping /?
Using the /?
syntax is a quick way to access command-specific help documentation directly from the command line.
