clear is not recognized as an internal or external command

Question

Whenever I try to enter the "clear" command in cmd, it returns the same message:

"clear" not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

It happens with some other command lines too, but this one is really annoying because I often need it. I have no idea how to fix it.

Any tips?

Answer 1

The message is completely correct; no such command exists.

Did you mean cls?

Answer 2

This command, clear may exist in other code, but not in batch code. If you mean the command need to clear the screen, use cls. That will clean the screen.
