Introduction
This article describes an issue that occurs when Cmd.exe commands are unsuccessful after you wait a long time on an x86-based device that is running Windows Embedded Compact 2013. An update is available to resolve this problem. Before you install this update, all previously issued updates for this product must be installed.
Symptoms

-
You open a Command Prompt window (Cmd.exe), and then you run several commands successfully.
