What is Use of Pause Break In Computer Keyboard

Answers

Answered by badhemahesh5gmailcom

Answer:

The Pause and Break keys were used in DOS and still function in the Command Prompt today.

The Pause key is designed to pause a text-mode program’s output – it still works in the Command Prompt window on Windows. When you press Pause, the output scrolling down your screen will stop. Depending on how the program is written, this may also pause the program’s execution. Press another key after pausing and the program will continue.

The Pause key can also pause many computers during the BIOS boot-up process. This can allow you to read BIOS POST (power-on self-test) messages that flash on your screen for a short time.
