Discussion
The SETVER command displays the version table and reports a DOS
version number to programs or device drivers.
Use this command if you want to display and modify the version
table, which lists names of programs and the number of the MS-DOS
version they are designed to run with. If you want to use a program
that has not been updated for DOS 6, you can add its name to the
version table by using the SETVER command.
Options
number - Specifies the DOS version number 2.11 to 9.99.to be
reported by SETVER.EXE to the specified filename. The /delete and
/quiet options cannot be used with this option.
/delete - Used to remove a file from the version table. Can be
abbreviated to /D. You cannot use the number option with /delete.
/quiet - Used to keep DOS from displaying messages (used with
/delete).
Example
If you want to list the contents of the version table on drive C,
