The command in the Microsoft Windows operating system allows you to directly open an application or document with a single command instead of navigating this is location and double-clicking the executable. However, it only works for some of the programs Windows Embedded as command (cmd), Calculator (Calc) etc. So, have you ever wondered how to create your own custom run commands for accessing Favorite programs, files and folders? Well, read on to discover the answer.
Allow me to an example on how to create a custom implementation for the open command in Internet explorer. After you create this command, you must be able to open Internet explorer by typing just "ie" (without quotation marks) in the Run dialog box. Here is how you do.
1. right-click on your desktop and select New-> shortcut.
2. You, as shown below, you will see a dialog box "create shortcut"
3. click Browse, navigate to: program files-> Internet Explorer from your root drive (usually C:\) and select "iexplore", as shown in the picture above and click "OK".
4. Now, click Next, and type any name for the shortcut. You can choose any name as per your choice. What will your custom RunCommand. In that case I shall call my shortcut as "ie". Click Finish.
5. you will see a shortcut called "ie" to your desktop. All you need to do is just copy this shortcut and paste it into the Windows folder (usually "c:/Windows"). Once you have copied the shortcut in the Windows folder, you can delete the one on your desktop.
6. That's it! From now on, just open the Run dialog box and ie type and press Enter to open the Internet Explorer.
This allows you to create custom commands execution for any program of your choice. To do this, when you click the Browse button in step 3, just select the main executable file (.exe) file of the target program that will be is usually located in C:\Program Files. Provide a simple and short name for this shortcut, as per your choice and copy the shortcut file in the Windows folder as usual. Now just type this short name in the Run dialog box to open the program.
