I have the impression that Microsoft does not trust the average PC user. Windows puts out a lot of system tools in dark places. These tools are not displayed in the All Programs menu and must be sought in the control panel or already know them before you can find. These include an application of the system called "Microsoft Management Console" (MMC). Depending on your system, there are about two to three dozen of these utilities. They are present in Windows XP, Vista and 7. Since the system tools, it requires administrator privileges to operate.
MMC consoles have the extension. Msc and can be run by typing the file name of the console in a command prompt or the Run line. In Windows Vista / 7, the name can also be entered in the search box. The. Msc necessary. You can find a list and description of many of them at this link.
At this point, I will point out the MMC I consider the most useful for general use. It's called the Computer Management Console and contains most of the tools of the system the average PC owner can use. One of the characteristics of the management consoles is that you can combine a variety of system tools in a single interface and it contains a useful series of MMC in a single package. It is accessed by entering "compmgmt.msc" (without quotes), either in the execution, command or search box. The figure below shows the interface of Windows 7 or Vista, but it is very similar to XP.
You can see from the figure that some utilities and most common functions are listed. For example, the Device Manager, Disk Management, and the service console can be accessed here. More details about using these tools are in the following references. These tools can also open individual consoles and the file name to enter the list.
