Hello!
In windows 9x,When you select "Start"->"Run"->type"Command"
to enter MS-DOS window,the current directory will be the
current folder in Explorer.Unfortunately,this feature does not
exist in windows2000,I don't know why it is changed. I wonder
if there is any command line parameter in CMD.EXE to implement
the function?
Thanks in advance!

Attached is CMDHERE.ZIP.

In it is CMDHERE.INF.

Right Click on the INF file and choose Install.

Now when you look at the Context Menu in Windows Explorer, you will have the menu item "CMD
Prompt Here".

That is when you view folders, Right Click on the chosen folder and choose "CMD Prompt
Here".

The caveat is it doesn't work on UNC names, only mapped or real drives.
