| Hi Folks,
| Some years ago someone had me download a Microsoft Power Kit that allowed
| one to right click on any folder or directory on the File Explorer and
| instantly open a command window set right on the directory where the folder
| was, without having to navigate all the way to the subdirectory by typing a
| long path.
|
| I have been looking for this power kit on the microsoft.com download list
| and I have not found it. Will someone please tell me if it is still exist? If
| not, what is an easy way to accomplish the same task without spending time
| programming? are there any shareware programs available?
|
| Someone suggested to use the Send To and adding the command shortcut to the
| Send To list, but it never opens in the directory where the folder is. Is
| there a way to fix this?
|
| Any suggestions on the above would be appreciated.
