I was playing around with customizing Command Prompt window. Now the
entire screen becomes Command Prompt and thus there is no longer a title
bar. How can I recover the original small Command Prompt window which
has a title bar on it?

Try going to start > All Program > Accessories then right clicking the
shortcut to cmd.exe. From there go to the options tab and change it to
windowed mode under the display options.

You can also use Alt + Enter to toggle from Full Screen to Window.
