Question

Sorry if this has been asked before, I\'ve been looking around and it\'s hard to find what I want.

I know how to add a context menu item to a folder like so:

Answer 1

According to my personal experience of Windows XP (SP3), you can open Console2 inside the current directory with a context menu entry using the following .reg file:

  Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 

  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\console2] 

  @="Console2 Here" 

  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\console2\command] 

  @="C:\Program Files\Console\console.exe -d \"%1\"" 

If you look at the key value inside regedit.exe , you should see:

C:\Program Files\Console\console.exe -d "%1"

instead of:

C:\Program Files\Console\console.exe -d ""%1"" 

The latter would open Console2 in its default start directory.
