Clickie
Clickie is a handy utility that will add 2 new features to the context menu (right click) of Windows Explorer:
Features
- Copy Path Name: Copies the path of the selected folder or file to the clipboard (as text). You can then paste it wherever you need it. Some software need the name and path of a file and do not provide any way to browse. In such a case, Clickie becomes very useful and will save you a lot of time. This feature also works when several files are selected.
- Open MS-DOS Prompt: Opens a DOS window in the selected directory. Using Clickie, you don't need to crawl to the directory you want to work in.
- Right Click language available in English, French, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, German and Italian. Setup available in English and French.
- Clickie is a freeware, you may use it as you wish (personal or commercial)! No spyware, adware or any such thing included. There isn't even an interface for Clickie, it is in the right click, period.
- Extra care was taken to avoid adding any burden to the system, consequently, the DLL that Windows loads to handle those menu items is only 12kb!

The Open MS DOS prompt only shows on folders and drives, may be that's why you did not find it?
I cannot understand why Microsoft still did not add these two very-very-very-useful shortcut in the native OS.
You saved me tons of hours...
I just upgraded to W7 and discover that you added a 64 bits version. Wonderful !

Great Tool. Is it free for commercial use in our office?
Kind regards.
