Many computer users, specially the programmers, need to launch a command prompt window every once in a while to execute some dos/shell commands. The problem is, when a command prompt window launched, the default path is normally the system path or the user profile’s path. The users will then have to do all the “cd” commands to change the directories to the path he/she wants.

This trick shows you how to add an option called “Command Prompt” when you right-click on a folder in Windows. With this option, a Command Prompt Window will launch and its current directory will be the path to the folder you’ve selected.
