Useful Windows XP commands (from the prompt)

So, after countless hours re-researching Windows prompt commands (to manually remove all the viruses that Windows boxes are subject to), I have finally decided to compile a list of them. Yes--I am forgetful enough to need to consult notes

As some of you may already know--command screen can be entered by clicking the start button-->run-->and typing in the 'cmd'

These are the ones I use the most. You can find other more in depth lists online.

• CONTROL: opens the terminal window. CMD works just as well
• CONTROL ADMINTOOLS: opens a partition viewer among other things
• CONTROL KEYBOARD: opens keyboard properties
• CONTROL COLOR: opens display
• CONTROL FOLDERS: allows you to adjust double or single click file opening and make all hidden folders visible system wide.
• CONTROL FONTS: opens font screen
• CONTROL INTERNATIONAL or INTL.CPL: allows you to change the default language of your computer
• CONTROL MOUSE or MAIN.CPL: opens mouse properties
• CONTROL USERPASSWORDS: opens User Accounts
• CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2 or NETPLWIZ: User account details. Also where you can set up your Microsoft passport, if you are so inclined
• CONTROL PRINTERS: opens faxes and printers available
• APPWIZ.CPL: opens Add or Remove programs window--great if some virus has blocked access to the usual path through the control panel gui.
• DESK.CPL: opens display properties theme tab--useful if you, say downloaded the Alienware GUI theme manager and the start button and everything you hold dear in the start menu became mysteriously invisible--but still functioned... been there--done that...
• HDWWIZ.CPL: opens an add hardware wizard
• MMSYS.CPL: opens Sound and Audio device Properties Volume
• SYSDM.CPL: opens System properties
• TELEPHON.CPL: Opens phone and Modem options--yes, Windows still has that feature
• TIMEDATE.CPL: Date and Time access
• WSCUI.CPL: opens Windows Security Center
• ACCESS.CPL: opens Accessibility Options
• WUAUCPL.CPL: opens Automatic Updates
• POWERCFG.CPL: opens Power Options Properties
• CERTMGR.MSC: opens certificate management tool
• COMPMGMT.MSC: opens the Computer management tool
• COMEXP.MSC or DCOMCNFG: opens the Computer Services management tool
• DEVMGMT.MSC: opens Device Manager
• EVENTVWR or EVENTVWR.MSC: opens Event Viewer
• FSMGMT.MSC: opens Shared Folders
• NAPCLCFG.MSC: NAP Client configuration utility tool
• SERVICES.MSC: opens Service manager
• CONTROL SCHEDTASKS: opens Schedule Tasks manager
• LUSRMGR.MSC: opens Local Users and Groups
• SECPOL.MSC: opens local security settings
• CIADV.MSC: opens indexing service. Never used it--not sure of its total usefulness--but here it is...
• NTMSMGR.MSC: removable storage manager
• NTMSOPRQ.MSC: removable storage operator requests
• WMIMGMT.MSC: opens (WMI) Window Management Instrumentation
• PERFMON or PERFMON.MSC: opens the Performance monitor as a graph--super useful.
• MMC: opens empty Console root
  
• DXDIAG: opens DirectX diagnostics tools. It may ask you if you want to make sure your Direct X version is approved by Microsoft first, but I usually ignore that popup window ;)
• ODBCAD32: opens ODBC Data source Administrator. As I understand it, ODBC is a database tool with SQL compatibilities.
• REGEDIT: opens Registry Editor where you can change HKEYs... sort of dangerous if you do not know what you are doing
• DRWTSN32: opens Dr. Watson, an error control utility
• VERIFIER: opens Driver Verifier Manager
• CLICONFG: opens SQL Server Client Network Utility
• UTILMAN: opens Utility Manager--or you can click the 'Windows' button and the 'u' button to bring it up... Microsoft Sam will begin speaking to you--so be careful who is around you when you try this.
• MSCONFIG: opens a utility to show you what programs are tied to startup
• SYSEDIT: opens System Configuration Editor
• SYSKEY: Windows Account Database Security management
  

And those are the known Windows XP commands that I am aware of... I will add more as I discover them (online and in through experience). I also hope to create a few example tutorials using them...
