    @Brink and others,

    If the above two sections [ NOT the actual Script itself ] work on your computer, please let me know and I will update the Script accordingly.

    I think explorer shell:CameraRoll [ does NOT work on mine but the following does ] should possibly be . . .
    Code:
    
explorer shell:CameraRollLibrary

    Also, I have found that these additional commands also work:
    Code:
    
explorer shell:Captures
explorer shell:Local Documents
explorer shell:Local Downloads
explorer shell:Local Music
explorer shell:Local Pictures
explorer shell:Local Videos
explorer shell:SavedMusic
explorer shell:SavedPictures
explorer shell:SavedPicturesLibrary
explorer shell:SavedVideos
explorer shell:ThisDeviceFolder

    I have spent way TOO long on this.

    Well, I really did have a SENIOR day yesterday !

    Last night I thought to myself, rather than searching the Internet for Shell commands and then testing them on my system, why NOT see if I could put a command together to directly extract them.

    I investigated and found that ALL the folders reside in the Registry Key . . .
    Code:
    
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions

    So, to cut a long story short, I created this command one liner . . .
    Code:
    
PowerShell Get-ChildItem 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions' ^| ForEach-Object {New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property (@{RelativePath=$_.GetValue('RelativePath');Name=$_.GetValue('Name')})} ^| Sort-Object -Property Name ^| Format-Table -AutoSize Name, RelativePath

    Then I thought that I would make the command more readable in case @Brink wanted to add it to the Tutorial:
    Code:
    
PowerShell Get-ChildItem 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions' ^| ^
  ForEach-Object { ^
    New-Object ` ^
       -TypeName PSObject ` ^
       -Property (@{RelativePath=$_.GetValue('RelativePath');Name=$_.GetValue('Name')}) ^
} ^| Sort-Object -Property Name ^| Format-Table -AutoSize Name, RelativePath

    Then I thought that I would convert it into pure PowerShell:
    Code:
    
Get-ChildItem 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions' | 
ForEach-Object { 
  New-Object `
     -TypeName PSObject `
     -Property (@{RelativePath=$_.GetValue('RelativePath');Name=$_.GetValue('Name')}) 
} | Sort-Object -Property Name | Format-Table -AutoSize Name, RelativePath


    Here is the completed Script for ALL the Shell commands CURRENTLY listed using the above for [Win 10 Home] and [Win 10 Professional], and BOTH [32-bit] and [64-bit].

    Code:
    
@echo off
if not "%1"=="max" start /max cmd /c %0 max & Exit /b

    Another Project finished !

    I hope someone finds it useful.

    NOTE:- I have Re-Scripted the above code using an Array instead of goto: in Post #12 below.

    Hello @Brink,

    NOT TRUE.

    As I am just sitting here listening to Bach, and having remembered that I had written this, I decided to Re-Script the above code using an Array instead of goto:.

    Code:
    
@echo off
if not "%1"=="max" start /max cmd /c %0 max & Exit /b

    Is there a list somewhere for shell commands that launch administrative tools, like the device manager as an example? (explorer shell:::{74246bfc-4c96-11d0-abef-0020af6b0b7a})

    (I know I can just use devmgmt.msc, but it's just for the sake of an example)

I recently saw that you could type "shell:sendto" in to Run and that acted a shortcut to C:\Users\x\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo. I've never seen this "shell:____" before, what are these types of commands called and what are all of them?
