Create Your Own Customized Run Commands

The Run command on Microsoft Windows operating system allows you to directly open an application or document with just a single command instead of navigating to it’s location and double-clicking the executable icon. like Command prompt (cmd), Calculator (calc),Notepad (notepad) etc.

So, Here i m Going to tell you how to create your own customized Run commands for accessing your favorite programs, files and folders?

Creating the Customized Run Command

Let me take up an example of how to create a customized run command for opening the "Mozilla Firefox". Once you create this command, you should be able to open the "Mozilla Firefox" just by typing “mf” (without quotes) in the Run dialog box.

Follow The Steps:

1. Right click on your Desktop and select New -> Shortcut.

2. You will see a “Create Shortcut” Dialog box as shown below .

3. Click on “Browse”, navigate to: Program Files -=--> Mozilla Firefox from your Root drive (usually C:\) and select “firefox(.exe file) as shown in the above figure and click on “OK”.

4. Now click on “Next” and type any name for your shortcut. You can choose any name as per your choice; this will be your customized “Run command”. In this case I name my shortcut as “mf”. Click on “Finish”.

5. You will see a shortcut named “mf” on your desktop. you need to do is just copy this shortcut and paste it in your Windows folder (usually “C:/Windows”). Once you have copied the shortcut onto your Windows folder, you can delete the one on your Desktop.

6. That’s it! From now on, just open the Run dialog box and type mf and Enter to open the Mozilla FireFox

In this way you can create customized Run commands for any program of your choice. To do this, when you click on “Browse” in the Step-3, just select the target program’s main executable (.exe) file which will usually be located in the C:\Program Files folder.

The Facebook-China rumor mill has been churning for years now, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that the site will launch a censorship-friendly option in the country. As Per the Information , Facebook Will Parter With Baidu ( Baidu - Chinese search engine ) and launch a separate site, although all users will have the ability to connect to it – but not without some red tape. “ When Facebook users outside China connect with users inside China, sources said they will need to click through a warning that any material visible to Chinese users may also be visible to the Chinese government .” China has been accused of hacking Gmail accounts of Chinese dissidents , so if you’re trying to connect to Facebook China, it can be assumed your content is being monitored.

Laser mouse is one step ahead of optical mouse. 1) Laser ones are more precise than optical ones and can respond to very little movements also (extra sensitive). 2) This difference is because of the type of light used.
