Hi, today I'll show you my favorite tiny tips for Windows.

Usually we use "right click" and see some context menu like this:

This right click context menu is editable by regedit.exe.

At this time I'll recommend some tips I use so many times.

CMD.EXE HERE

Do you wanna open cmd.exe and change directory HERE? I do!!

Here is the two source code:

(directory and directory background)

directory

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\shell\cmd-here]
@="CMD.EXE HERE"
"Icon"="cmd.exe"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\shell\cmd-here\command]
@="cmd.exe /K \"cd /d %1\""

directory background

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\background\shell\cmd-here]
@="CMD.EXE HERE"
"Icon"="cmd.exe"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\background\shell\cmd-here\command]
@="cmd.exe /K \"cd /d %v\""

Just open cmd.exe and cd %1(or %v argument), easy enough?

To install it, you can download any *.reg file from this repository:

COPY PATH

Next, "COPY PATH" context menu.

Here is the three source code:

(file, directory and directory background)

file

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\copy-path]
@="COPY PATH"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\*\shell\copy-path\command]
@="cmd.exe /c \"(echo.|set /p=\"%1\")|clip\""

directory

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\shell\copy-path]
@="COPY PATH"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\shell\copy-path\command]
@="cmd.exe /c \"(echo.|set /p=\"%1\")|clip\""

directory background

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\background\shell\copy-path]
@="COPY PATH"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\directory\background\shell\copy-path\command]
@="cmd.exe /c \"(echo.|set /p=\"%v\")|clip\""
