Opening command Prompt (cmd) at any folder on your system.



Adding command prompt among the options in windows 7 when you right click folders
When we right click folders, it’ll be cool to have the option of opening the cmd console for that folder’s directory.
  1. Open “regedit” by typing “regedit” in the Start Menu search area, or Pressing Windows + R, and typing “regedit”. i.e launching the command prompt.
  2. After it has been opened Navigate to “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell”  right click the shell key, and create a new key, name it OpencmdPrompt under this new key, i.e.  OpencmdPrompt,  create a new key and name it “command”.
  3. Highlight the “OpencmdPrompt” and double click the default value, which is on the right side of the regedit, and input the value: “Open Command Prompt Here” , this is the text displayed when you right click.
