Faster Run Commands

If you open a folder in the Explorer, Windows will use that folder as an active folder in the Run dialog box. Therefore, you can activate all applications in that folder without typing its full path and drive letter. For example, you can activate Tetris game only by typing “tetris” (without quotation marks) in the Run dialog box, if the Wingames folder (with tetris.exe file inside it) currently opened by Explorer. Don't forget that you can use several last used commands in the Run dialog box, just by clicking the arrow symbol and select them from the list.

If you are running a file with the Run menu, then Windows will search it in that active folder. If they can't be found, Windows will search it in the system directory (C:\Windows, C:\Windows\System). If still can't be found, Windows will search it in the location appeared in the C:\Autoexec.bat file or App Path folder in the registry file.

Therefore, to get faster activation for files that used many times, type the file location in the C:\Autoexec.bat file. Use Sysedit (click the Start-Run button, type sysedit, click OK) to edit the autoexec.bat file. Now, you don't need to access Wingames folder with Explorer anymore, only to get faster activation for tetris.exe file.
