Open Control Panel items (CPLs) with Salamander

Post by AbteriX »

One can open the standard "Start | Settings | Control Panel's" from the command line too.

The syntax is like
RUNDLL32 SHELL32.DLL,Control_RunDLL filename.CPL,@n,t

where
 filename.CPL --- is the name of one of Control Panel's *.CPL files,
    n --- is the zero based number of the applet within the *.CPL file, and
    t --- is the number of the tab for multi paged applets

Use this syntax as command line in the SSs user menu.

I open here f.ex. the "Environment tab" of the "System applet" :
RUNDLL32 SHELL32.DLL,Control_RunDLL SYSDM.CPL,@0,2
