MS-DOS

MS-DOS (Microsoft Disk Operating System) is an early computer operating system that manages hardware and software, allowing users to interact with their computers primarily through text commands. It was widely used in the 1980s and early 1990s before graphical interfaces like Windows became dominant. MS-DOS provides basic functions such as file management, running applications, and controlling hardware components, serving as the foundation for many personal computers during its time. Although largely obsolete now, it played a crucial role in the development of modern computing systems.
