There are different ways to access this advanced Control Panel:NB This tip is incompatible with Vista x64, and can only be used on Vista 32 bit.
If having created the folder on the desktop and experience that Windows Explorer crashes on Vista x64, then one can open a command prompt and remove the folder with this command (Notice the quotes):
rd "All Tasks.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}"
- Launch this command through the Start-menu:
shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}
- Create a new folder on the Desktop with the following name:
All Tasks.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

EEVIL!! i made one o these folders on my desktop and pow.. “explorer has stopped working” I assumed this was part of this till I clicked restart explorer and it crashed again. I tried the command prompt “RD All_Tasks.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}” to no avail tried just “RD All_Tasks” I was about to give up till I tried “RD /s C:\users\[username]\desktop” lost all my icons but my computer is back to not crashing.
Running Vista x64 all latest updates and this is categorized as “vista tips” more like “vista crashes”. What is this supposed to do?
