DOS is an Operating system that's been dead for years and it didn't

So you "bring up" a "DOS" window, which in fact is a Cmd.exe or 
Command.com window, by typing "Cmd" or "Command" or by double clicking 
a shortcut to Cmd.exe/Command.com?!

So simply double click the shortcut to bash or to cygwin.bat.
