When you install the Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager 2007 console, Setup automatically creates adminconsole.msc in <Configuration Manager installation directory>\AdminUI\Bin and configures the shortcut in the Start menu to run the file. You can also use MMC to create custom .msc files that include the Configuration Manager 2007 console and other MMC snap-ins. You can modify how the console is started by adding options to the command line. Example:
C:\Program Files\ConfigMgr\AdminUI\Bin\adminconsole.msc [option]
