Creating a shortcut to Management Console?

mmc.exe

Probably it lives in C:\Windows\System32, but I don't have a machine on hand to check.

Is there something else to your question I'm missing?
 
MMC is just the console, you have to tell it what snap-ins you actually want to load.

If you do a search in the windows\system32 directory for files with the .msc extension, those are all the basic snap-ins included with windows. compmgmt.msc is the Computer Management, services.msc for the Services management screen, etc.

The .msc extension is registered to MMC, so you can just make a shortcut to a particular msc file and it will open automatically.

And of course you can write your own console snap-ins.
 
What do you mean "add" them? There's a .msc file for each of those. If you want to make your own customized "Computer Management" console, run mmc.exe and use the Add/Remove Snap-In on the file menu to select which of them you want listed.

The Help file gives lots of info on how to do things with the MMC. I've never personally done anything with it other than open the pre-defined snap-ins.
