List of Run Commands

1. “\” - This is one of the lesser known Run commands. Just enter the backslash into the Run dialog box and it will open up the C drive. It is one of the quickest ways to access the C drive.

2. “.” - This is yet another lesser known Run command. When executed, it opens the current user’s home folder which hosts all the other local folders like the Downloads, Documents, Desktop, Pictures, etc.

3. “..” - When you execute these two dots in the Run dialog box, it will open up the Users folder which is located directly in the C drive.

4. calc - If you want to quickly open the built-in Windows calculator app, typing calc in the Run dialog box is the easiest way to do it.

5. cmd - Even Windows users have to deal with the command line sometimes. With this command, you can quickly open the command prompt without administrator privileges.

6. powershell - If the command prompt is too old for you, then you may want to try PowerShell. Just type this command in the Run dialog box, and you will have your PowerShell opened without administrator privileges.

7. netplwiz - The general user accounts option is available through the Control Panel, but if you want to mess with the advanced user account options then use this command to open the Advanced User Accounts window. If you want to deal with the Authorization Manager, then use the Run command azman.msc.

8. gpedit.msc - Group Policy Editor in Windows allows you to set and edit different Windows policies of a local or remote computer. Since Group Policy Editor is an advanced tool, it is buried deep inside Windows, and this Run command is the easiest way to access it.

9. lusrmgr.msc - Using this command, you can open the Local Users and Groups Manager where you can edit several properties of all the users and groups.
