The Old New Thing: Why does holding the Ctrl key when selecting New Task from Task Manager open a command prompt? (via: Site Home – MSDN Blogs)

Posted by jpluimers on 2012/07/16

I love the long lead time between some proposals in the suggestion box and the actual answer. A lot longer than my blog queue (:

I Commenter Adam S wonders why holding the Ctrl key when selecting New Task from Task Manager will open a command prompt.Its a rogue feature.

I didn’t even know this was possible. It seems one of the fastest ways to start the console!
