There are several “shortcuts” to control panel dialogues that involve a simple right-click. One of the most common and easy-to-use is the shortcut to Display properties, which is found by right-clicking on the Desktop and subsequently clicking “Properties.” Another is to System, which is found by right-clicking “My Computer” and then clicking “Properties.” Another is to Internet Options, which is found by right-clicking “Internet Explorer” and then clicking “Properties.”
In general, to go to a dialogue for a particular option, you can usually right-click the associated icon and press “Properties.” (Note that this is not a 100% guaranteed shortcut, but it can still be quite convenient at times.)
