Title: How does "mem /U /NOSUMMARY" know in DOS which program is in which location?
Post by: bugthis on June 12, 2023, 02:40:43 PM
How does
mem /U /NOSUMMARY
know which program is in which location?

Where is this information and its program name stored?

And how does a program know in DOS, which memory area is free and which it can use without overwriting an existing program or data?
