hello,in my copy of Windows 7 RC, direct links and shortcuts to control panel items do not work. I can open My Computer and get to the control panel and most of the items, but if I click on control panel from the start menu,from a desktop shortcut, or from right clicking on a system tray icon, like the network icon, and select "open network and sharing center", it will not open. any ideas?thanks, geyster

Something happend somwhere but one thing you could try is find a rundll32.exe command that might apply tosome of your items or you could make a shortcut to some of them if you findthem in system32.Proud to be an American.
