How to access Control panel Applet via command line.

We can use Control Panel tools either by navigating to Control Panel or via using command line. It's an useful way from an administrator's point of view. All control panel tools are named with .cpl extension as *.cpl and all the .cpl files are strored in %systemroot%\system32 folder. We have to use the names of control panel tools by which they are present in this folder. List of .cpl files.



5. Example: "control main.cpl,,2" which will open the same mouse properties but this time the tab opened will be 2nd satring first tab as 0.



6. Example: "control main.cpl keyboard" . This option will open keyboard properties.
