My 10 Favourite Commands

Although Windows XP provides a great way to open an aplication by click their icon, some times I feel typing a command to ask Windows open an application is better way and faster. At least it happens on my daily work. I feel press Windows + R keys combination and then typing a command make my job be more responsive.

And here are commands those I use them almost everyday:

1. %TEMP%. This command will open your temporary files folder. I open it everyday to make my computer clean from trash files. Instead of open this folder by open C:\Documents and Settings\<user_name>\Local Settings\Temp manually, use this way.
2. %WINDIR%, this command will open your Windows folder.
3. %PROGRAMFILES%, this command will open your Program Files folder where almost your entire application installed.
4. %USERPROFILE%, this command will open your profile folder.
5. winword, open Microsoft Word.
6. excel, open Microsoft Excel.
7. notepad, to open notepad. I use it everyday to make a temporary note such us my friend’s phone number.
8. calc, to open calculator (Windows built-in application). I calculate something every day
9. firefox, to open my best internet browser is Firefox.
10. regedit, to open Registry Editor. I like to browse my registry structure and its values and to otak atik (read: learn) them.

What’s your favourite command?
