WOW!!!! 2 years to reply!!!!!!!

Your solution doesn't work on windows xp... and if you didn't notice at the top of the page it says that this topic applies to windows xp. So therefore you should've given the windows xp solution, and then, if you wanted to, you could also add the solution to the problem on a windows 7 computer.

How do I create a desktop shortcut to Disk Management?

Do a search on "Disk Management." When you find it, don't click it,

but right-drag it to the desktop. When you release the mouse button,

choose "Create shortcut here."

You are awesome, thank you Mein Fuhrer!

I am smiling for two reasons.

1. You answered this question for me too.
2. You expressed the same frustration I feel 99.9% of the time I deal with Microsoft.

OK, I'm really only smiling because of the latter. Gawd it feels great when you don't have to constantly filter and sanitize communications with the gatekeepers. Thanks! You made my day.
