When loading any operating system of the Windows family, you will be prompted to click the "Start" button - the message "Start by pressing this button" will appear on the desktop. You can use the Run command to launch a specific application or file if you do not know its location.

Managing the Execute command
Instructions
Step 1
The "Run" command has only one function - calling or launching an application. By default, this command is located on the right side of the open Start menu. If you have not seen the coveted inscription in this menu, therefore, this command is disabled in the settings. To go to the settings of the "Start" button, just right-click on it and select "Properties" from the context menu.
Step 2
In the window that opens, go to the "Start menu" tab and click the "Configure" button. Depending on the operating system you have chosen, the menu setting can be carried out without clicking on the "Configure" button. Find the "Run menu" item in the list and put a check mark next to this value. To save the changes made to the system settings, press the "OK" button twice.
Step 3
Now open the "Start" menu again, the "Run" command will be displayed at the very bottom line. Click on this item. In the window that opens, enter the msconfig command and press the Enter key. If the system settings window appears in front of you, everything is done correctly.
Step 4
It is worth noting that the Run command is less popular in Windows Vista and Windows Seven than in older versions. How can this be explained? In the latest versions, developers from Microsoft have proposed an innovation - the smart search bar.
Step 5
The essence of the search bar is as follows: you enter the command or the name of the application installed on the system, and the search results display options from which you can select the most suitable one. For example, if you enter the word "kerchief", the system will give you results for your query, with your favorite game being the first line in the search results.
Step 6
If for some reason the Run command is not displayed in the Start menu and it cannot be enabled in the menu settings, do not be discouraged, because this is not the only way to display this command. As far as you know, the Windows operating system allows you to do one action in different ways. Thus, the Run command can be launched with the Win (window image) + R keyboard shortcut.
