A. You typically access the Device Manager through the System Control Panel applet (go to Start, Settings, Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager). To create a Device Manager shortcut on the desktop, perform the following steps:
Right-click the desktop.
Select New - Shortcut from the displayed context menu.
For the item's location, type devmgmt.msc, and click Next.
Name the shortcut Device Manager, then click Finish.
