There is a bit that can be set, in the registry I, believe that can turn on CMD as as an Explorer menu item. What is the mod? ReneeNot a C officianado

Hi Renee, open regedit and go to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\cmd HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\cmd and delete the value Extended or press the SHIFT key and make a rightclick on the folder. This shis you to open the command prompt. But I prefer this addon: http://code.kliu.org/cmdopen/ which allows you to run the command prompt with admin rights (elevated).

Yes, Andre, I agree. I took a careful look at what out's here yesterday and I concluded that the one from Kliu was best. Unfortunately, I already had the other in which was a delection in the registry and i have bothered yo put it back in yet. ReneeNot a C officianado
