One big negative of being a desktop specialist can be the daunting task for browsing through multiple directorys and/or shortcuts to find many of the consistently used adminstratives apps, such as Device Manager, Event Viewer or Services. Well, Windows XP does make it much easier for someone to access many of these internal applications by using run line commands.(Start>Run)

Below is a list of all of the integrated Windows XP applications that have the ability to be run from the run line. For example, in order to access the services currently running in Windows, you just go to START>RUN>and type “services.msc”.

All of these commands have the capability of working in both Windows XP Home AND Professional…with a majority having the ability to work in Windows 2000 as well.
