Open Command Prompt(cmd) directly from a folder
Instead of opening command prompt and then moving into the required folder using "cd" command , you can use a simple trick available in Windows to do the same thing. This requires no third-party software to be installed on your system. Steps: Move to the folder in which you want to use command prompt Hold "SHIFT" key and right-click in an empty area Select "Open command window here" This will open command prompt with path changed to your current directory rather than "C:\Users\Your User Name". Screen-shots : * you can also right-click on any folder icon in the system while holding down the shift key to do the same. Tested on : Windows 7 Ultimate
