Which of the following utilities in Windows operating system allows users to add or remove Windows components and features using a command-lineinterface?

Explanation / व्याख्या:

In Windows operating system, the Command Prompt is a command-line interface (CLI) that allows users to execute commands directly. Using Command Prompt, advanced users can:

• Add or remove Windows components and features using commands like DISM (Deployment Image Servicing and Management) or OCSetup.
• Automate tasks that would normally require manual interaction with GUI tools like Control Panel.

Other options explained:

• Device Manager / डिवाइस मैनेजर → Used to view and manage hardware devices, update drivers, or troubleshoot hardware issues.
• Control Panel / कंट्रोल पैनल → Provides a graphical interface to manage Windows settings and features, but is not command-line based.
• Task Manager / टास्क मैनेजर → Used to monitor running processes, CPU/memory usage, and end tasks; cannot add/remove Windows features.

Extra Facts / अतिरिक्त जानकारी:

1. DISM command in Command Prompt can add/remove Windows features:
   Example: DISM /Online /Enable-Feature /FeatureName:NetFx3
2. Command Prompt is especially useful for system administrators and advanced users for automation.
3. It can also be used for troubleshooting, network configuration, disk management, and scripting repetitive tasks.
4. PowerShell is a more advanced CLI in Windows that can do all Command Prompt tasks plus more advanced automation.
5. GUI tools like Control Panel are user-friendly but cannot perform batch or scripted changes like Command Prompt can.
