Control Panel Shortcuts
Do you ever get tired of constantly opening up the Control Panel to access various configuration utilities? As for me, I go into the "System" box in Control Panel several times a week, in order to reach the Device Manager. You can instead place shortcuts on your desktop to your favorite ones. Here are a few, if you need one that is not listed, do a search for all *.cpl files to find it:
| Utility | File |
| Add/Remove Programs | appwiz.cpl |
| Display Properties | desk.cpl |
| Internet Options | inetcpl.cpl |
| Sound and Audio | mmsys.cpl |
| Network Connections | ncpa.cpl |
| Power Options | powercfg.cpl |
| User Accounts | nusrmgr.cpl |
| System Properties | sysdm.cpl |
| Automatic Updates | wuaucpl.cpl |
