After updating my Windows 10 to the creators update I find out that microsoft have removed the "Open Command Window here" from the context menu and replaced it with windows PowerShell Which by the way I did not liked (I like working with that black background), sure I could have just opened the command prompt and changed the directory to where I wanted it to be, But who the hell has that much time. So in order make my life easier I started searching how to get it back. And yes! you guessed it, I found what I was looking for. here I am sharing that with you guys.
And this will add Command Window button to the context menu.
Add Command Prompt to the context menu
You can get "Open command window here" in the context menu by tweaking your Registry settings.
Copy the following code into a text file and save it as anything.reg. Make sure to add .reg as file extension.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmdprompt]
@="@shell32.dll,-8506"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmdprompt\command]
@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmdprompt]
@="@shell32.dll,-8506"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\cmdprompt\command]
@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmdprompt]
@="@shell32.dll,-8506"
"Extended"=""
"NoWorkingDirectory"=""
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmdprompt\command]
@="cmd.exe /s /k pushd \"%V\""
Double click on the file to apply the registry settings.And this will add Command Window button to the context menu.
