If this option is not visible in your my computer right-click menu or is accidentally deleted from there, you can display this item using this setting. For this, go to start > run, enter regedit and navigate to the registry path listed below. Make a new subkey under shell key by name services and change its default string value to the same name, services. Then, create a subkey command under services, and change its default string value to c:\windows\system32\mmc.exe /s c:\windows\system32\services.msc /s (where c:\ is the default drive). The changes will take effect after a restart or logoff. Note: when you use the /s flag, registry editor suppresses all messages, including indications of failed registrations.
