***k Korean (Hangul) Windows NT 3.5 is not a localized version but an
emulation version and all these Control Panel applets are in English, all
Control Panel applets can be directly accessed.
SYMPTOMS
In all Far East localized versions of Windows NT 3.5x, when you attempt to
run a Control Panel applet by typing the following text in the New Task
field of the Task List dialog box (invoked by Ctrl+Esc), the applet does
not run.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem,
- run Control Panel applets from the Control Panel Program Group instead
of from the Task List dialog box.
-or-
- type Control <applet_file_name>.cpl instead of Control
<applet_icon_name>:
To learn what the file names are that correspond to the names that appear
under the corresponding icon of the applet in Control Panel, search for all
%SystemRoot%\System32*.cpl files on your system drive. For example, from a
command prompt, type at the root directory of your system drive:
Dir *.cpl /s
STATUS
