I misspoke? typed? By Windows people, I meant Windows support people. The ordinary user has no reason to look at the command line, honestly.

LOL, no -I- misunderstood, I assumed you meant "Windows users".

Good lord, I too am appalled by the "support" people who are scared of the command line. May God have mercy on their souls, because I sure wouldn't. I'm totally with you.

But if you want to do things quicker, use AutoHotKey and add such as the following (change the keys to what you want) to a script you then save and run

#1::Run C:\Windows\System32\Sysdm.cpl

#2::Run powercfg.cpl

#3::Run ncpa.cpl

#5::Run devmgmt.msc

#6::Run diskmgmt.msc

#7::Run eventvwr.msc

#8::Run services.msc

#9::Run msconfig

#!W::Run C:\Windows\SysWOW64\wuapp.exe [Windows update]

#U::Run C:\Windows\System32\appwiz.cpl [uninstall]

#+r::Run regedit.exe

#P::Run control printers

Not that the codes are,

#+ (Windows key and Shift)

#^ (W and Ctrl)

#! (W and Alt)

I myself remapped the caps lock key to copy, and the esc key to paste (since i do lots of both with my arthritic fingers) and NumLock to Esc, and the middle mouse key to cut, but adding the following to the script:

NumLock::Esc

CapsLock::^c

Esc::^v

mbutton::^x

And the Windows Club Right-click extender can add many right click commands

Then there is the BBCodeXtra Firefox ext. which enables me to add scripts to code pages like this.

Thank God for such helps.
