Windows RUN Shortcuts...

link: RUN command shortcuts [if that doesn't work try here]

Shortcuts are always my favorite for three reasons, one they get you faster than the conventional way and two they are cool and three well they are cool :-) Of the shortcuts mentioned by Vinod Kumar, my favorites are...


  • Add/Remove Programs : appwiz.cpl

  • Calculator : calc

  • Character Map : charmap

  • Command Prompt : cmd

  • Computer Management : compmgmt.msc

  • Device Manager : devmgmt.msc

  • Display Properties : control desktop

  • Display Properties : desk.cpl

  • Event Viewer : eventvwr.msc

  • Fonts Folder : fonts

  • Hearts Card Game : mshearts

  • Logs You Out Of Windows : logoff

  • Minesweeper Game : winmine

  • Notepad : notepad

  • On Screen Keyboard : osk

  • Registry Editor : regedit32

  • Remote Desktop : mstsc

  • Scheduled Tasks : control schedtasks

  • Services : services.msc

  • Shuts Down Windows : shutdown

  • Spider Solitare Card Game : spider

  • System Configuration Utility : msconfig

  • Task Manager : taskmgr <-- even faster shortcut is the key combination CTRL+SHIFT+ESC

  • Windows Magnifier : magnify <-- Now I use the cool utility from the Microsoft Intellimouse software

  • Wordpad : write

  • Remote Desktop : mstsc [remote to console: mstsc /console]


its fun with shortcuts.

If you search on C:\Windows\System32 for *.msc you will find few more shortcuts.
