Re: Miniapps within XP



To add to what everyone has said, both msconfig and sfc can be run from the
run box. Anything else depends what you are trying to fix. Just create a
list of your own and as you learn a new command add it to your list.

Hi normc,

No, and that's mainly because you can launch nearly anything from the run
box. As long as the system knows how to execute the file type, it can be
opened or run from that dialog. The list would be endless.


Thanks, guess I wasn't very clear... or complete.

Over the years of using 98SE I became aware of very useful, unadvertised
DOS utility programs built into the OS, such as msconfig and sfc, that
could be run from Run.

In reading the posts here I notice a number more being suggested for
utility use. It has never been clear why these seem to be a jealously
guarded secret, or if they are not, why they are not summarized somewhere.
I'm looking for such a summary.

Thanks again.
