Create a shortcut to the command prompt on the desktop. Name the shortcut
for the task.
Ex: Check Drive C
Now go to the shortcuts properties. At the end of the initiation string (on
the target line) enter a "space". Then type /K. Then enter another space.
Then type your command.
Example: %SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe /k chkdsk c:
This will open the command prompt, run chkdsk on drive C, and keep the
window open till you X out of it!
Move the shortcut wherever you want it to finally be.
