Run Command to open SCCM client 'Configuration Manager Properties'

I had always checked online to find a Run command to open the 'Configuration Manager Properties' window from a SCCM client machine's Control Panel. Most of the time i had to create a shortcut of the Configuration Manager Properties window on the desktop for easy access.

Recently i found a post by Chris Nackers who has successfully achieved in getting the command line (which i hope is not available from Microsoft site itself). Thanks Chris for sharing the info.

Start - Run - “control smscfgrc”

Update to the above post:

• This command works for SCCM 2007 and SCCM 2012 clients. I haven't checked on SMS2003. 
• And it works pretty fine on Windows 7/8/2003/2008/2012 as well as Server Core operating systems.

Modifying CM 2007 service window cause unexpected delay in Updates deployment

A new Knowledge Base article (KB2850370) recently published for ConfigMgr 2007 talks about a rare issue that we may run into if we modify the properties of a maintenance window right after creating a new software update deployment.

Article Title: Modifying a Configuration Manager 2007 service window may cause an unexpected delay in a software update deployment
Article Link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2850370  
Article ID: 2850370

The article says that the software update will still get deployed on the clients but may happen a little later than we might expect. This is by design in System Center Configuration Manager 2007.
