Useful Windows commands list

Post by ettemil »

I was doing some research into bluetooth stuff and found a useful list of "run"(Winkey + R) commands, it was made for windows xp, I think; but most of them work on 7. They can all be used with the !Execute bang, except the ".msc"s, that didn't work even with their full path linked in the code. If someone happens to find a way for making them run somehow; please, post it here. :great:
