i use to be able to type part of a word in the command promp screen and hit
the tab and it would reolve the rest of the word, how can I get this back as
it now just tabs along instead.

Reboot

If that doesn't work then
http://tinyurl.com/fc2tu mid way down to
"Enabling file and directory name completion" but there shouldn't be a
reason to have to edit it - as it shouldn't change on it's own.

Ya it's a link that says to type in:
CMD /F:ON
to get it back :)

Do a CMD /?
