I was able only two Windows XP files with this format: “Minimize all windows” and “View Channels”:

Minimize all windows.scf:
|--------------------------------------------------|
[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,3

[Taskbar]
Command=ToggleDesktop
|--------------------------------------------------|

View Channels.scf:
|--------------------------------------------------|
[Shell]
Command=3
IconFile=shdocvw.dll,-118

[IE]
Command=Channels
|--------------------------------------------------|

Format of this files looks like INI, executed in Windows files run system processes.
I want to learn in details of SCF.

Thanks.

 I had been interested in this long ago, but it cropped up again on TechRepulic, and I see that this question is asked
and not answered all over the 'net. It is just one of those fabulously undocumented things that folks who code don't
need, and most users won't bother with. It is also probably of limited functionality, yet I would still like to know what
commands are possible within an SCF myself.

Here is one you missed, Stupid Winuser:
 

explorer.scf   (Find the Target of the Windows Explorer shortcut on the Start Menu)

[Shell]
Command=2
IconFile=explorer.exe,1

[Taskbar]
Command=Explorer

What I can tell you:

IconFile -  You can reference any icon you like here. You can use an ICO that you make yourself, or point to one inside any file that contains icons.
In the case above, the second icon in explorer.exe is used (numbering starts at 0). 

Command=Explorer -  Use any of the command line options to customize how explorer opens. Look it up in a Resource Kit or on microsoft.com.
Actually, look here:  http://www.scribd.com/doc/43384/Command-Line-switches-for-Windows-Explorer

It took me a while to find, but it lists some things I vaguely remember, but don't seem to be shown anywhere else any longer (IDLIST, passing CLSIDs).  If you want to do specialized explorer commands and change the icon, it is a lot easier to do this with a regular Shortcut, as you can pick the icon in the GUI without having to figure out the icon position number in a dll, exe, etc.

Other stuff:

Some files involved:
explorer.exe
shdocvw.dll
shdoc401.dll     SHCmd (InProcServer32)>>{57651662-CE3E-11D0-8D77-00C04FC99D61} CmdFileIcon
shell32.dll

 Any functionality in the SCF filetype is probably better exposed in the various Windows scripting formats: WindowsScript, VBScript, CScript, JScript, or whatever. I don't really know anything about this stuff. 

Maybe someone can clue us in. :) 

Hi everybody,
Normally I speak french, so, don't blame me on my english,

Im very interrested on this subject , and I wonder what is "Command = 2". Its necessary but I dont know his utility. Is that the number of the command you execute in your file ?

thanks
