| 274459 | 2004-09-21 22:15:00 | Hi Folks. Every now and then some clever dick mentions in a posting a Start > Run > Open > activity that I have not met before. The most recent was dxdiag. I try to keep a log/index of these functions and their results. Is there anywhere a definitive list of all transactions which can be handled this way in XP Pro? I have Googled this without a great deal of success. Thanks. | Scouse (83) | ||
| 274460 | 2004-09-21 22:34:00 | I don't know of a list, but just about anything can be started from the run command often you don't even have to add the .exe type notepad & notepad will open type photoshop & photoshop will open type in the full path to a picture in my pictures & that picture will open type in an internet address & it will open if it is a list of XP services that you are looking for & what they do there are hundreds of sites available www.theeldergeek.com being one of them http://www.blackviper.com/ being another but there are literally hundreds of them |

| 274463 | 2004-09-22 00:34:00 | 45south and johnboy. Prompt reply appreciated. It is more the diagnostic type - cryptic looking entries - that I am trying to compile a list of. Off to a good start. Thanks. | Scouse (83) | ||
| 274464 | 2004-09-22 00:39:00 | Hi johnboy - that tripod site does not run. Typo? Response is..... Object not found! The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error. Thanks. |

| 274466 | 2004-09-22 08:18:00 | Hi folks. Just an early evening "bounce" before I let this thing die. Anyone out there have any diagnostic or system review type transactions they use in Run? Thanks. Scouse. | Scouse (83) | ||
| 274467 | 2004-09-22 09:08:00 | In WinXP you can type sysedit in the run box. On my system this will open a number of windows and I can edit a number of files. This will include Autoexec.bat, Config.sys, Win.ini and System.ini |

| 274468 | 2004-09-22 09:20:00 | I use gpedit.msc all the time You can make all sorts of configuration changes from here But don't muck around with anything, unless you know exactly what the results will be And make notes of changes so you can reverse them |
