But we can't do whole above process every time whenever we want to open Turbo C++ So we need set it Automatically that whenever we open DOSBox it automatically start Turbo C++.

For this You need to follow below some steps.

1.) First Go to windows Startup screen by pressing the WIN key and then search DOSBox (Type Directly on screen) in the list of search results Click on "DOSBox 0.74 Option"(If you installed latest version of DOSBox).

Search Dosbox option


2.) After opening if scroll it down to the end, and add lines below.

            mount d c:\turbocpp\
            d:
            cd tc
            cd bin 
            tc

Add custom lines


3.) You have Done. ! Now It will automatically start Turbo C++.


Important Note:-

Please note that If you use shortcuts of Turbo C++ it might be shortcuts of DOSBox also.

Like [Ctrl] + [F9] is shortcut to compile Turbo C++ program but It is also a shortcut of to exit the DOSBox.

Use [Ctrl] + [F9] key without close DOSBox.

  1. Press [Ctrl] + [F1] while running Turbo C++.
  2. Click 'Shut Down".
