do you want to delete a command while typing in dos ? if yes then press cls and it will remove all the text from the screen

You question can have multiple meanings. Deleting a *file* is done using the "del" command (for instance, "del filename.txt" will remove the filename.txt file). Undoing a previously entered command isn't possible. Removing a command for the list of commands you can use isn't possible either (these commands are built in DOS)

Answer by  BugsBgone (14)

The question about deleting a command in DOS is flawed. Once you enter a command you can not take it back. The only alternative is to undo the command with the appropriate reversal command. A followup would be needed here if you have entered in commands that need undone. Delete and backspace work just fine in the DOS operating system.
