in XP
If you want to open a command prompt to a directory that is selected in the Explorer:
- Start Regedit
- Go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ Directory \ shell
- Create a new key called Command
- Give it the value of the name you want to appear in the Explorer. Something like Open DOS Box
- Under this create a new key called command
- Give it a value of cmd.exe /k “cd %L”
- Now when you are in the Explorer, right click on a folder, select Open DOS Box, and a command prompt will open to the selected directory.
