I would like to assign a button on my keyboard to "System Properties" in the
control panel but cant find the exe or path. Anyone?

Thanks!
 
The command line is: rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL sysdm.cpl,,0
But the easy way is to press Win + Break.

Enjoy!

Open Control Panel. Right-click on the 'System' Icon & select 'Create Shortcut'. Allow the
shortcut to be created on the desktop when offered. If desired, move it to a subfolder of the
Desktop or Start menu (these are the only folders for which keyboard shortcuts are valid). Then
edit the properties of the shortcut you created to assign a keyboard shortcut.
 
control sysdm.cpl

is the correct documented way of doing this. This will work in future windows versions. Using rundll32 is undocumented and may not work in the future.
