Event Viewer executable filename?

[chriske911]

Knack pretended :

Would like to put a shortcut to Event Viewer in my Start menu. Google's
archive of this newsgroup revealed that the executable for Event Viewer
should be Eventvwr.exe, but such a filename isn't seen in Windows Task
Manager > Processes while Event Viewer is running. Moreover a search of the
C:\Windows directory for Eventvwr.exe turned up nothing.

it isn't exe but msc at the end

"Eventvwr.exe" exists.

Moreover a search of the C:\Windows directory for Eventvwr.exe
turned up nothing.

That file is located in the %windir%\system32 folder!
