Copy the following contents to a reg file.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Copy To]
@="{C2FBB630-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\Move To]
@="{C2FBB631-2971-11D1-A18C-00C04FD75D13}"

Install the reg file.
You will have CopyTo and MoveTo options.

What happens if you right-click a file/folder? Do you see copy to
folder/move to folder in the drop down options?

Carlos, I did as you instructed, and then I even used the Reg Edit
program to verify the correct entries (both were there). Unfortunately,
the CopyTo and MoveTo commands are still not in my Send To Folder.

What do you suggest I do next?

Also, there are some double entries in my Send To folder for several of
my drives (A, DVD, CD,etc.). Do you know how I can get rid of these?

Thanks in advance.....Bill

That registry hack adds the copy to and move to onto the right click menu,
not the Send To menu.

Your drive shortcuts are added to the Send To context menu by the registry.
If you delete the drive shortcuts in the sendto folder, you won't have
duplicates (this applies to drive shortcuts only).

As to "Send to Folder", you might try Send To Toys 2.5 (it also has a few
other nice features, such as Send To Clipboard as Name and Send to Command
Prompt), found here:

http://www.gabrieleponti.com/software/

Ronnie, I found the problem, at least in my situation.

Once I hacked the change into "ConTextMenuHandlers" rather than "Con
TextMenuHandlers", I got my Copy To and Move To in the right click. For
some reason, the original post by Carlos showed Con Text, which is what
I copied/saved/merged the first time.

With that all said and done, I have two more questions that maybe you
can answer:

(1) Is there a way to specifically add "send to any folder" to the Send
To menu like we had in XP? I don't really need that now, but I was just
curious.

(2) My Send To drop down menu repeats some of the drives (A, DVD, CD),
but yet these only appear once in my Send To folder. Any idea how to
get rid of these repeats?

TIA...............Bill

Could it be there are two places and two distinct setting here?
One called Copy To at
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\AllFilesystemObjects\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\

And another called Send To which you access by
Start Search Type: Shell:Sendto

Question #1. Not without using a third party program. This was one of my
favorite from the PowerToys. I use the program that Dean-Dean mentioned.

Send To Toys 2.5
http://www.gabrieleponti.com/software/

Question #2. The drives are in that menu by default. If you have an
additional shortcut to the drives in the SendTo folder, remove them. The
drives should still be visible in the right click send to options.
