In Windows XP, after "msconfig" is run, the system prompts that the file cannot be found. However, the file exists in the system partition and can be opened by double-clicking.
This is because msconfig.exe exists in the % SystemRoot %/pchealth/helpctr/binaries directory, instead
% SystemRoot % or % SystemRoot %/system32
. The reason why we can directly run msconfig to open this program is that in the registry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/APP
Paths
Click msconfig.exe.
To provide guidance. If msconfig.exe paths or paths are not correct, the file name cannot be opened directly. Solution: Run "Regedit" and find
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/APP
Paths
In the window on the right, right-click the blank area, select new> item, and change its name to "msconfig. EXE ". Then select "msconfig. in the right window, double-click the string value [Default] and change the value to "C: /Windows/pchealth/helpctr/binaries/msconfig.exe "(you can change it based on the partition of the system ). After modification, we can directly run msconfig to open the program as before.
Or copy the file above to C:/Windows/system32.
