    Description

      Tested in 43787

      Tworld and DosBox are using cmd windows to work. Now seems they arent working at all.

      Tworld:
      *Decompress it.
      *Launch it.
      *You will arrive to the first Window.
      *Press F1:nothing happens(it should show the Help info)
      Also you will notice that it is freezing ReactOS, but no exception is raised.

      DosBox:
      *Install
      *Run It.
      *It will launch two Command Windows.(Dont move the mouse while it is loading)
      *The second one has a Blinking caret, waiting your Input.
      *Move the Mouse over the window.The caret will stall and all ReactOS too.

      Same thing it stalls but not exception is raised.
