How to Open Command Prompt at a Particular Folder Directly from the Folder’s Context Menu

How to Open Command Prompt at a Particular Folder Directly from the Folders Context Menu

Its sometimes really annoying to reach a directory in windows using a command prompt. Typing cd again and again is really boring.

Here is a simple solution.

Copy paste the following lines and save them as “command.reg”.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryshellCommand]
@=”Open In Command &Prompt”
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTDirectoryshellCommandcommand]
@=”cmd.exe \”%1\””

Now simply double click on this file to put these settings in registry. After this whenever you’ll right click on any directory, it will show an extra option “Open With Command Prompt”. You can also change this text simply by modifying the fourth line in above script.
