For those of you who are as slow as me on the uptake, I made a WordPad doc ( I am currently without office) with all of these GUIDs and keep it on the desktop.

I then found that I could run each of these by using RUN.

I just left clicked on the Search Glass, typed in "run" and then right clicked on the app icon and selected "pin to taskbar".

I then select the GUID I need and paste it into the run dialog box.

If there are some you need all of the time, just follow the same directions as you did for run above.

    I am currently locked out of this system by Microsoft. I cannot prove ownership so I an stuck at this point

    Web Cam, Dual Mic's, Active Stylus Pen, Backlit KB
    Thunderbolt 3
    One USB-A 3.0 port, two SuperSpeed USB 10Gbps
Like most people, I still have a "Control Panel" item in the left pane of File Explorer, but it irks me that when I click on it, I always get the Category View. This setting used to be remembered in older OSs, but apparently no longer. Now, given this list, I can obviously create a shortcut that'll show what I want, but I'd rather have the one in File Explorer do as I prefer. So, in short, exactly which occurrence of "{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}" in the Registry do I have to change to "{21EC2020-3AEA-1069-A2DD-08002B30309D}" to restore this behavior?

P.S.: I just found replies at https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3123-clsid-key-guid-shortcuts-list-windows-10-a-2.html#post1976288 that indicate another way of setting this default, but I tried it and it didn't work for me.
