I Like Things Easy

I don't like to go hunting all over the place for something I need right away. I like things easy! I guess you could say I am a bit O.C.D or maybe even lazy. Laziness drives me crazy so I like to think of "easy" in this case as efficient.

Now that you have your search up in Cortana, right click on Command Prompt. Here you will see a list of task you can perform:

  • Run as administrator
  • Open file location
  • Pin to task bar
  • Pin to Start

You can run the flush dns command from the "run as administrator" here if you would like but I want to pin this feature to a place that will be more efficient for me in the future.

So I click on Pin to task bar.


With the command prompt in the task bar, I can eliminate all the other steps just to get to it. The next time I have to flush my dns, all I have to do is click on the button on the task bar, type "ipconfig/flushdns" (without quotes) and as Jay likes to say "Whoosh", I am done.

I swear Loes, I am a master at making things difficult for myself! I make this above statement often. Spend hours or days trying to figure it out. Then I want to slap myself and say " for pete's sake, Suzette, that was easy!" LOL.
