I have been having an issue lately with Cmd (Command Prompt) on my computer, every time I try to run it, it opens up and then suddenly shuts itself down.
Does somebody know any solution for this? if so please answer.

Hey there, your computer might have been infected with a malicious miner called "SoundMixer"
Following these steps might help:
Open Run (Windows key + R) and enter "%appdata%" without quotes and press Enter.
Go to the Microsoft folder and delete the SoundMixer folder contained within (this is the mining software).
Open Run and enter "regedit.exe" without quotes.
Find the registry entry "[HKEY_CURRENT_USSER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]" and remove it. (This entry attempts to run the miner whenever CMD is started.)
Go to the winlogon registry entry in the same regedit software ([HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon])
Check the sub-key named "shell" and change its value to "explorer.exe" without the quotes. (This means when you log onto Windows it will no longer attempt to run the miner and instead start up normally).
Lol, that was a fast answer!
And yeah, I did all those steps and it finally works again, Thanks a lot!
