These commands like cmd will save a lot of time when using windows xp and other windows. Every software or application in windows has a command associated with it which runs/executes when the software operates it. But we can use this shortcut for all windows common applications like control panel media player etc. We need to open Start Menu-> Run and there we’ve to type the shortcut to open the application we want & press enter. For example if you want to open Add/Remove Porgrams, generally we’ve to go to control panel and then open it, which takes more time. But here in Run command of start menu type few letters appwiz.cpl and that application will open instantly. Here’s a list of such window shortcut commands which when used in
Startmenu->Run will easily open/access everything in win, reducing our waste time.
Following is the complete list where each line’ll appear as Application Name- Run command for that app .(sorted
