This trick shows you how to add an option called "Command Prompt" when you right-click on a folder in Windows.
With this option, a Command Prompt Window will launch and its current directory will be the path to the folder you've selected.
You can manually edit the registry:
- Start > Run
- Enter "regedit" and hit Enter
- Expand to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shell"
- Right-click on "shell" and select New > Key
- Make sure a new key is created under "shell". Change the name of this key to "Command Prompt"
- Right-click on this new key "Command Prompt" and select New > Key
- Change the name of this key to "command"
- Double-click on the "(Default)" text on the right window to bring up the edit box
- Enter this text into the Value Data field:
cmd.exe "%1" - Click OK and close the registry.
