    How to make msconfig shortcut open at particular tab


    Hi, can anyone help jog my memory for me please. I use to have a shortcut to msconfig and remember I had altered the path info in the target box to ensure that the startup tab displayed as soon as I clicked on the msconfig shortcut instead of the General tab.
    Yes i know maybe I'm being lazy but despite saving an extra click it helped remove the extra irritation of having to do so as I make regular adjustments in the startup section.
    Please anyone?

    Mine tend to reopen to the last place used but check this Microsoft page:

    Should have added to look toward the bottom of the page.

    Good evening Berton and many thanks for the link. As soon as read the info it became a serious head slapping moment.
    I probably wrote the info down somewhere but do you think I could find it? Clearly not as I wouldn't have posted the question. Thanks again you have saved me a lot of time.
