how to access Display properties directly?

I have to right click on desktop to access personalization, then click
Display settings to access the settings. Is there a way to access it
directly? I searched the files inside Windows folder but can't find
one program that is the Display settings.

Thanks,

Hi,

That's be because the control is embedded in a library file. Try typing
"control desk.cpl" into the start/search line and hitting <enter>.

Thank you. I created a batch file to run the CPL file. It works well.
