Thanks to The New Tech for the original forum posting.
Open a CMD prompt and type this in to see a complete list of the environmental variables (eg. %TEMP%) on your system:
set
You can also use this list to open special locations in Explorer, using the Start Menu search box.
Also if you're interested in Windows Vista or Windows 7 shortcuts then there's also the 'Godmode' folders.
The “Monster” Control Panel
The godmode will enable the “Monster control panel” that includes all functions and is quite large. See below for specific codes to create specific links.
- Create a new folder (right-click and click on “New Folder”). Right-click on the folder and click on rename, copy and paste this:
GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
- This folder will now be a shortcut to the Windows 7 godmode. The godmode allows you to quickly access many Windows 7 functions via a GUI.
Specific Godmode Codes
There are other codes for specific features and functions. The “monster control panel” above will give you the complete list of all features at once, but that list is quite lengthy so you might want to create multiple, smaller and specific links:
Important: To use the codes below you don't have to use the word “Godmode”. It can be anything you like.
