DOSShell for Windows

User Reviews

• Easy and useful!

  nanoduckJanuary 22, 2012

  Pros

  It was easy to install and didn't have a problem getting it to work. It is so much easier than trying to run a program with DOSBOX only...all I needed to do was make an entry and point it to the file to run and then all you need to do is click on it and it runs.

  Cons

  Maybe more features?

  Summary

  Highly recommended if you want an easy way to run your old DOS games and programs.

• Wonderful DOSBox Frontend

  AsuyukaAugust 25, 2011

  Pros

  Easy to Use Easy to Setup Quick to Setup Games Not Very Big

  Cons

  None that I know of.

  Summary

  In short, DOSShell is a lovely little DOSBox Frontend. It runs with DOSBOX flawlessly, and makes setting up newer games a breeze. Probably my favorite since D-Fender vanished.

• Waste of Time for such a small program

  southernrican2May 18, 2011

  Pros

  One one pro it is free.

  Cons

  Need to take a course to understand, is a waste of time. Windows is suppose to make things simpler. Once you load this is suggest loading dosbox.

  Summary

  NOT anything like you old Dosshell, more like a maze.

• Couldn't get it to do the job

  MrHenders0nDecember 7, 2010

  Pros

  Costs nothing

  Cons

  Despite much faffing about I never succeeded in getting it to launch the one DOS application (the game 'Z') that I need DOSBox for. Possibly it's capable of it, but it turned out to be easier to use DOSBox directly, despite the poor documentation.
