Many DOS commands work in the Command Prompt and are useful additions to Windows. MS-DOS is not part of Windows just the pseudo Command Prompt.

No one is providing MS-DOS with windows - you do get a command prompt emulator that is *like* the old MS-DOS. However - Windows no longer runs on top of DOS.
