    Missing "wmic" !
    Edit:
    This is for vista and not sure if they apply to XP:

    - Install windows features - OptionalFeatures.exe
    - Advanced Firewall - WF.msc
    - Network stats - napstat.exe

    Re: 117 Useful Run Commands for win xp

    There is also a **** load of key bound short cuts.

    Most are documented in the windows help file, but latley been finding new ones that use the windows/command key.
    (not sure if these are vista only, but most shortcuts remain the same)

    Re: 117 Useful Run Commands for win xp

    I always wondered what the minimize key was, not even under the windows help. Found it the other day (well show desktop anyway). "cmd + m/d". lol many years of not knowing and yet so simple.
