This is a very useful list which may save you from excessive mouse moves and may be useful in many other ways. I still very vell remember situation when I lost a lot of time trying to sort out some problem with TS on a Windows Server 2003 which for some reasons had all administrative tools shortcuts removed from Start menu.

Always useful.
