start %SystemRoot%system32calc.exe
start %SystemRoot%system32notepad.exe

(The location of the executable file be provided are the ‘start’ keyword)

  1. Very useful trick that is. will you share any software program which enables us to create our own control panel to list all main or important scheduled program to show on single place with animation, etc. Which will spice up desktop on startup and not required to do that cumbersome task of launching programs from this tedious start menu for Windows XP 2000 SP3,
    Thanks , for any support!
