Link to Network- and sharingcenter not possible (Win7)

from Stardock Forums

It is possible, to create a link to the Network- and sharingcenter on desktop by producing a folder and naming it

Net.{8E908FC9-BECC-40f6-915B-F4CA0E70D03D}

It is unpossible, to call this center from Object doc.

Draging/droppin the link to the dock links to the desctop-Icon, even when the 'point to the target'-option is set in object doc. After deleting the desctop-link, the Obdock-Link fails.

Its impossible for me to get a working link in object dock to the Network- and sharingcenter.

can anybody help?

Here's what you do.  Create a new shortcut to:

C:\Windows\explorer.exe

Then, in the "Arguments" field, paste exactly this:

/N,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\::{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}\::{8E908FC9-BECC-40f6-915B-F4CA0E70D03D}

That should open the Network & Sharing Center for you.
