Hi,

Waht does /s means in %SystemRoot%\system32\services.msc /s?

Where can I find the complete reference?

Thanks.

services.msc runs with mmc (Microsoft Management Console). As far as I know, there is no /s switch. Documentation for the command line switches for this program can be found here.

In Windows XP, the default shortcut to the Services applet from Administrative tools is %SystemRoot%\system32\services.msc /s

IIRC, MMC used to have a splash screen, and the /s switch would suppress it. The continued existence of the switch on the shortcut may just be left over cruft.
