Explanation

Configuring a new SSD requires initializing it, creating partitions, and formatting it. diskmgmt.msc (Disk Management) is the GUI tool in Windows for these tasks. diskpart is the command-line counterpart that provides the same capabilities and more granular control. The other options serve different purposes: regedit.exe edits the Windows Registry, resmon.exe is the Resource Monitor, gpedit.msc is the Group Policy Editor, and dfrgui.exe is the Disk Defragmenter/Optimizer (also, defragmenting an SSD is unnecessary and not recommended).
