Location and parameters of start "run" tool

I use start-->run a lot for OS management.

I was wondering is there a shortcut to the file? and does it take parameters to launch "run shortcuts"?

This would save me time from having to look up the hard urls for all my favorite "Run" shortcuts.

Kub, I am not an expert still I can share a trick here on this issue.

It's hectic to use Run command for your OS management tools. Rather if you select which tools you want to refer back frequently, and create shortcuts to them.

This is how you create shortcuts to them:

1. "Right click" on your desktop.
2. Go to "New".
3. Select "Shortcuts".
4. A "Create Shortcut" wizard pops up.
5. Now, browse for "My Computer -> Local Disk C -> Windows -> System 32" and select your "Tool".

That's it. By default, it's placed on your Dektop.


Hope that helps.
