SQL Server Configuration Manager shortcut

SQL configuration manager is not visible in all programs and i have SQL 2008 , SQL 2012  and SQL 2014 installed on same box how should we open?

Shortcut is

• For SQL Server 2014 : SQLSERVERMANAGER12.msc
• For SQL Server 2012 : SQLSERVERMANAGER11.msc
• For SQL Server 2008 : SQLSERVERMANAGER10.msc

These shortcuts are very helpful in windows 2012 where start tab is not available.

These files are available @ below locations so you can also browse and start required configuration manager as configuration manager for 2012 will not show you sql 2014 instance if installed.

C:\Windows\System32

C:\Windows\SysWOW64
