    Unable to open "Device Manager Shortcuts" - Windows 10


    Hello all So, this is frustrating the garbage out of me. I have not updated nor have I installed any programs since and now when I try to open device manager from the WIN+X shortcut it displays this error Have tried the following: Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth sfc/scannow It opens fine when I open it through "devmgmt.msc" although not through any shortcuts? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated OS Version = (20H2 OS BUILD 19042.1081) thanks r/WindowsHelp - Unable to open "Device Manager Shortcuts"

    I didn't see on your list using Win-X to bring up the basic setup of system tools like the original control panel, easy access to device manager, etc. not technically a list of commands, but at least a shortcut *Smile Unable to open "Device Manager Shortcuts" - Windows 10 :)

    Device Manager shortcut

    Why not create a shortcut as @Farvatten suggested and drag it to the task bar. Then it's a one click open.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
