How Can I Add a Title To The Program that we can see it on the Top bar ?


I think we use system ("??????") or some thing like that ...

Also add colors ..

Never use system() on Windows. Use win32 api.

Any particular reason why you'd insist on system() when you have the win32 API to handle it?

#include <windows.h>
#include <tchar.h>


int main(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    
    system("title The bad way to change the console title");

    SetConsoleTitle(_T("The better way to change the console title") );
    
    return 0;
}

cuz I dont know any thing about it ...

I gave you a link to the win32 API where it says which functions to call to set the title, color, etc. Grey Wolf just gave you a turn-key solution to how to use the API.

The idea here is that if you spend 5 minutes looking at the supplied link, you might find that the is A LOT you can do using the win32 API (apart from changing window titles) - a lot of which can not be done using system() - and it is all quite easy.

I really suggest you read it...
