    mspaint (I needed a screen shot). I don't use the 'run' command very much. Apps I use often are pinned to the Start menu. I've got the 'personalized' area set to zero entries, since I didn't like menu items appearing and disappearing unpredictably.

I did that exact same thing after I thought I lost some of my icons. And I always set it to small rather than large icons. Why? I can fit more programs in there. :-D

      95% of the time, mine is "regedit". The rest of the time, it's "cmd". OK, it's a stupid post Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.

              Usually it's "cmd" as you said, then what follows: 1) net start 2) net stop 3) sc \\servername start r_server (for those familiar with Remote Administrator) 4) regedit 5) explorer 6) msconfig 7) lots of small batch scripts

                  Oh, I'm in Win-R all the time. cmd, winword, excel, calc, notepad, any Web address. I recently put the Address bar on the taskbar, but I'm not in the habit of using it yet.

                        '"E:\Program Files\Mozilla\Firebird\0.6\MozillaFirebird.exe" -p' but normally it is CMD or regedit. Also PING is popular. I wish there was a "SodItAndKillComputer" command.

                                Most of the time "cmd", the rest "calc" or "regedit"... Paul ;) I have been afraid always.

                                  cmd and mstsc once in awhile I have http://192.168.0.1 for router configuration/diagnostics. As for regedit the only time I use it is if I am developing something that specfically works with it, but thats been quite a while. Matt Newman

My colleague and I are what he calls "command-line Windows users", going by some of what's in my current list: c:\windows c:\Program Files desktop (This is really useful when you have lots of stuff open!) calc cmd charmap devmgmt.msc compmgmt.msc regedit winword Win+R is really useful, you see. I prefer the Windows command line to the various Unix ones (I'm a heretic, obviously), as you can run just one command without needing to muck about with a terminal shell, and that's what you do 90% of the time. Now that's bound to cause some controversy! Windows having a better command-line than Unix?!? :-) -- Ian Darling

                                        95% of the time, mine is "regedit". The rest of the time, it's "cmd". OK, it's a stupid post Marc Help! I'm an AI running around in someone's f*cked up universe simulator.
